2018 Brini Sebastian Single Vineyard Shiraz

From vines planted in 1947 this wine was matured in French and American oak barrels for 18 months. Dense inky black heart with a deep dark red black tinged hue. Sailing out of the glass with notable intensity are blackberry, liquorice, dark plum and blueberry scents which are trailed by hints of violets, vanillin cedar, light earth and spice. Rich silky textured flavours of dark plum, liquorice and ripe blueberry supplely kiss the medium to full bodied palate. Vanillin oak, subtle dried herb and spice characters linger on the back half. Velvet smooth tannins with an aftertaste that combines opulence with a sense of refinement.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
Alc. 14.5%
