Full bodied and rich this wine continues to develop lip smacking depth with tons of blackberry, plum and black cherry compote complimented by spicy licorice and cocoa. The Boxer has a deep purple colour. The notes of McLaren Vale rich terroir and heady cassis and white pepper along with blackberry and generous but smooth tannins to compliment its density. A real beast of a Shiraz!
The grapes were grown on the Mollydooker vineyards in McLaren Vale and Langhorne Creek. Barrel fermented and matured in 100% American oak using 43% new, 42% one year old and 15% two year old barrels.
This powerful wine is vibrant, complex and jam packed with a kaleidoscope of flavours. Chocolate, plum and liquorice just to name a few; all beautifully wrapped in bright berry fruit on the mid-palate. Subtle oak elements and flawless tannins, intertwine with the fruit ever so gracefully. This impressive Shiraz finishes with a persistent length and is an absolute joy to drink.
