Merricks Estate Shiraz 2012 Mornington Peninsula - 12 Pack

Here's another mature red offering from Merricks Estate that would be good to go with a rich moussaka tonight. It's a medium-bodied, cooler style of shiraz that still shows some dark berries on the nose, with mature layers of earthiness and hints of deli-meats, plus an undertow of pepper spice. The palate is elegant and savoury, with decent licks of spice, mellowing tannins, and a smooth finish.
