Jacobs Creek Johann Shiraz Cabernet 2012 Barossa Valley - 6 Bottles

Product Description

TASTING NOTES:

Dense crimson red with a vibrant hue. Rich and complex, showing a harmonious blend of ripe blackberry and licorice characters from Shiraz, with bright cassis fruits and distinctive mint, lift from the Cabernet Sauvignon. Oak is playing a subtle supporting role on the nose to the fresh vibrant primary fruit which is offset by a briary, savoury edge. This classic Australian blend of Shiraz and Cabernet dances across the palate. The concentrated and stylish fruit flavours are lovely, while the dense and seamless tannins combining with the elegantly integrated oak really set this wine apart. These elements combine to give a wine with density of flavour, seemingly effortless power and length that is, at all times, in perfect balance. Carefully cellaring this wine for the next 10-15 years will enable further development and integration of the ripe and intense fruit flavours. Our winemaker recommends that the ideal year of drinking would be 2019.
