Oak Lane Shiraz / Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

The Shiraz/Cabernet Sauvignon blend has been made along the lines of the traditional Rhone style. The wine offers subtle flavours of white pepper and spices complimented by juicy ripe plums and hints of sweet cassis. A well structured wine with its lovely balanced acid and ripe, integrated tannins will drink divinely now and will continue to impress for another 5 years, if cellared correctly.
