2016 The Smithy Shiraz Cabernet

This wine pours a deep crimson, revealing intense aromas of ripe blackcurrant that exude lush vibrancy. Hints of dried herbs add an earthy complexity, while subtle notes of mocha from oak aging provide a rich, warming undertone. 

On the palate, it is well-balanced, with fine-grained tannins that offer a smooth, polished texture. The impressive density of the fruit gives the wine a full-bodied feel, yet it remains beautifully balanced, making it a sophisticated and satisfying expression of Shiraz Cabernet.
