Tasting notes
(63% shiraz, 18% cabernet sauvignon, 10% merlot and 9% cabernet franc) Saturated red color. Black raspberry, boysenberry, cherry-cola and Asian spices on the nose, with gentle oak spiciness adding further complexity. Plump and juicy, offering luscious dark berry, cherry-vanilla flavors and succulent herb flavors, with silky tannins providing frame. Firm minerality lends focus to an impressively long, juicy finish, which leaves anise and baking spices behind. Suave and sweet, with the balance to age but the sex-appeal to drink now.

The 2005 Keyneton Estate is a blend of 64% Shiraz, 18% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot, and 8% Cabernet Franc. It spent 18 months in French and American oak. It reveals scents of toast, wood smoke, spice box, clove, mint, blueberry, and black currant. This leads to a lean, elegant wine with intense flavors and medium length.
