Shiraz

2004 Great Southern Syrah

The Plantagenet Shiraz from the esteemed Great Southern region is a captivating expression of the Syrah varietal. This full-bodied red wine showcases a rich ruby color, exuding an air of sophistication and depth. With its high acidity, the wine delivers a bright and lively profile that invigorates the palate. The fruit intensity is prominent, boasting delightful notes of dark berry compote, blackcurrants, and hints of spice that linger enticingly on the finish. Tannins are notably structured yet approachable, contributing to a harmonious balance that makes this wine both complex and enjoyable. As a dry red, the Plantagenet Shiraz is a splendid choice for those who appreciate a well-crafted wine with a legacy, perfect for pairing with hearty dishes or savoring on its own.

Western Australia

Fans of Aussie wine will be familiar with Western Australia's beautifully complex Bordeaux, Burgundy and Rhône varietals and blends. Lying south of Perth around the southwestern tip of the country, this relatively small area produces just five percent of Australia's wine. But when it comes to quality, Western Australia punches well above its weight. Well-known small sub-regions within Western Australia include Margaret River, Frankland River and the Blackwood Valley, where the dynamic Chardonnays, Pinot Noirs and Rieslings are distinctly European in character.
