Tasting Notes

Very deep purple-black in colour, the 2012 Amon-Ra reveals intense notes of blackcurrant cordial, blackberry compote and liquorice with nuances of cloves, allspice, chocolate box and salami as well as a whiff of espresso. The 100% Shiraz palate offers a beast of a wine that is densely packed with black fruit and baking spice flavours and is supported with firm, grainy tannins and crisp acid through to a finish with excellent persistence. Drink it 2015 to 2025+.
