Tasting notes:
Colour: A real dark red.
Aroma: A ripe fruit nose of black cherry & liquorice hints. Smells full & lush with a smoked meat undertone & subtle vanillin oak.
Palate: Definitely a well balanced red with plenty upfront dark fruit notes. Well structured with a slightly pepper spice background which balances out the red berry fruit & subtle hint of dark chocolate perfectly.
Finish: A medium to long finish of blackberry, liquorice, cured meats & pepper ground.
Serving Suggestion: A lean leg of lamb can be enjoyed with this delightful Shiraz.
Alcohol Percentage: 14.5%.
Product Description:
Traditionally the Battle of Bosworth Shiraz is a crowd-pleasing style of wine; always delicious, ripe but not over-ripe and always faithful to region and site. The 2014 is no exception. Winemaking is fairly standard. We pick, crush and then ferment in open vessels and pump over the juice at least 3 times a day. This helps extract the maximum fruit characters and colour from the skins. The wine finishes its ferment in barrels – of various ages and types. We use predominantly French oak barrels with a smattering of American. We also blend a small percentage of cordon cut, vine dried Shiraz to the wine prior to bottling. It really is that simple.
