2017 POWELL & SON Shiraz Barossa Valley

Bright purple. Ripe cherry and dark berries, vanilla, mocha and licorice aromas pick up woodsmoke and floral nuances with air. Lush and open-knit, offering juicy, spice-laced black and blue fruit, espresso and singed plum flavors that coat the palate. Finishes long and smooth, with a repeating blue fruit note and rounded tannins adding framework and subtle grip.
