Subtle oak complexities of black cardamom, nutmeg and lifted violets are well positioned in the background. The palate is rich and layered with dark cherries, plums and raspberries. Integrated structural dark chocolate tannins scroll to the back palate with subtle hints of anise, which is balanced with an elegant and buoyant acid line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"\u003cem\u003eThis younger, less costly sibling in Leeuwin's Shiraz pair really shines.
