Manuri 2003 Lady Pass Shiraz PlonkOz04

 

A dark, rich, soft fruit driven those showing vanilla with obvious mint. Powdery, smooth tannins, balanced acid and deep fruit combine to form an ample-weight wine with a supple consistency, solid structure and well developed complexity that has a good punch. A very drinkable wine with a good mouth feel, the ripe, rich fruit in the mulberry spectrum with chocolate and minty characters forms part of the world developed complexity which finishes dry. Rated as Highly Recommended with *** for value, the wine should peak in 2006 and beyond.
