Seville Estate 2002 Shiraz Oct 04

Pepper dominates milk chocolate, plum and cedar. On the palate, distinct fruit delivers an upfront hit of initial strawberry sweetness, slamming pepper, chocolate, plum and green capsicum characters on the tail. Smooth unobtrusive tannins have enough stuffing to provide a solid backbone, the acid is fresh, consistency is supple and complexity developed. Medium-weight, this is a good example of cool climate Shiraz that is ready to drink now. Rated as Recommended with *** for value.
