Boisterously ripe and full-bodied, this is a classy, nuanced and bewitching Shiraz. The warm, spicy flavors are reminiscent of mulled wine on the palate. An exotic array of peak summer plums and nuances of oil-cured black olives are attractive, while the moderately lingering finish is slightly heady. Drink now–2021.
