WOW! A beautiful fruit bomb from Coonawarra! Under the steady eye of Wayne Stehbens - KATNOOK ESTATE - this parcel destined for the european market missed the boat! This yummy Shiraz coming out of Coonawarra continues to amaze us! It should have a brilliant reputation because this release from Millicent Road had us in a frenzy. It’s got some real power as well as cool climate elegance and that’s what won us over, as you will discover. Perfect for premium staff present and parties, this food orientated wine is a ripper for quality, value, length and sheer gusto!
Aged for 15 months in American oak leaving a subtle imprint as well as raspberry and mulberry fruit, mint, pepper and spice. Layered with intense fruit before flavours of chocolate, vanilla and spice round out the palate ending with fine-grained tannins. It could only possibly go with a leg of lamb rubbed with rosemary, salt, mint and garlic.
