Country: Australia / South Australia
Variety: Shiraz-Cabernet Sauvignon
Winery: Hollick /
At 93% Shiraz, many wineries would have just labeled it as Shiraz, but not Hollick. The wine itself has lots of tart, almost sour, cherry fruit that marries well with the earthy, bitter undercurrents. Very smooth and supple in the mouth. Only light tannins make this a wine to drink now. —J.C.
