Waverley Hills Shiraz 2012

This wine has an intense purple centre with pink rim. Black cherry and sweet plum aromas are rounded off by the smoky and spicy notes of the French oak. Subtle aromas of Cape Fynbos and rosemary also come through on the nose. On the palate, the wine has a soft entry and finishes with white pepper and spicy notes.

Very adaptable, the wine can be enjoyed at a light lunch or compliment a hearty lunch or dinner.
