(from 3 separate parcels spread out over the entire vineyard)

Generous wood is sufficiently prominent to all but overshadow the very ripe aromas of mocha

spice-tinged cherry and blackberry scents are brightened by suggestions of smoky minerals and pungent flowers

The middle weight flavors are not as concentrated but they’re finer and more mineralinflected while delivering good length on the bone dry and linear finish

There is a subtle trace of exoticism to the pretty and layered array of both white and yellow orchard fruit

Rolf Binder, Hanisch Shiraz other_regions_italy (from 3 separate parcels spreadFull medium ruby. Complex, expressive aromas of raspberry, violet, gunflint, iron and mocha. Then superripe, dense and chewy, with notes of maple syrup, salt and pepper. A sweet, broad wine with a slightly aggressive back end. A rather successful example of the thick, saline style of Australian shiraz. Stephen Tanzer
