Jim Barry The McRae Wood Shiraz 2022 rop Cabernet Franc and Cabernet SauvignonVibrant aroma of lifted violets, red currant, and perfectly ripe back plum, combine with well integrated spice and a hint of very smart oak hidden in the background. The palate has commanding fruit with a density that stands to attention. Effortless flow throughout with flavours of ripe plum and purple fruits and layered fine tannin. Great intensity with a drive that will last for days.
