1999 Moss Brothers Shiraz

Deep crimson colour, with crimson mauve edge. The nose has a degree of earthiness that runs right through the wine. Aroma of earth, leather and spice, followed by distinct plum, dark chocolate end notes. On the palate, the earth, leather flavour components are too dominant, and tend top mask flavours of plum and dark chocolate. Fine grained, soft tannins, followed by an aftertaste of earth and plum. Cellar 2-3 years (2003-2004)
