Capel Vale Whispering Hill Shiraz 2018 Mount Barker - 6 Bottles
Availability: In stock
This delicious Shiraz emanates fleshy berry fruit aromas and flavours complemented by lifted pepper and spice characters typical of Mount Barker. The subtle and careful maturation in French oak barriques adds more layers of interest to the mid-palate, followed by a generous long, soft finish. The wine will gain complexity and smoothness with cellaring for up to 8 years. Savour this wine with red game meats, lamb, or rich beef dishes.
