Fowles Are You Game Shiraz 750mL

This shiraz is a vibrant red with some purple hues. On the nose are notes of ripe plums, lifted florals, pepper spice and subtle vanilla. The palate is medium bodied and balanced with juicy ripe fruits, cool climate spice, silky tannins and finessed French oak. This Shiraz is a complex blend due to the different ripening conditions of the different parcels of grapes picked. Two thirds of the fruit parcels were wild fermented to create further complexity and depth. For 12 months this wine was matured with oak, mostly French. A dash of Mourvedre was added to provide a dark fruit perfume lift and add complexity to the palate.
