Shiraz

1971 Adelaide Syrah

On the palate, it reveals a full-bodied structure that is complemented by pronounced acidity, lending a lively character to each sip. The fruit intensity is striking, with dark berry notes enhancing its richness, while the tannins exhibit a firm yet elegant presence, perfectly integrated with the wine's depth. The wine finishes with a beautifully balanced dryness that invites contemplation, making it a splendid choice for those who appreciate the intricacies of aged wines from this renowned region.
