Note di degustazione
The 2007 Covenant Shiraz has a deep garnet color with a tinge of purple in the rim. It displays intense notes of fresh blackberry, black currant, toast, marmite, black olive and cumin seed plus a touch of meat. Medium-high acid and medium-firm, finely grained tannins support the full-bodied, richly fruited flesh, finishing long. Approachable now, it should continue to develop and drink to 2019.

Inky ruby. Fresh, very pure aromas of blackberry, blueberry, lavender and white pepper. Lush and sweet initially, but closes down quickly, offering just a glimpse of sweet black fruit and floral flavors and zesty spices. This is a tough read right now. Finishes long, with a note of blackberry and fine-grained tannins. I'd come back to this in another year or so.
