Kangarilla Road The Devils Whiskers Shiraz 2013 750mL 14.5% ABV

You may not be familiar with the term ‘devils whiskers’, but anyone partial to a drop of red wine will be more than familiar with the two little marks that stain your top lip after a glass or two. Embracing this phenomena is the Kangarilla Road The Devils Whiskers Shiraz 2013. Kangarilla Road focus on small-batch, artisan wines using traditional techniques to create truly stunning vintages.

Tasting Notes

Colour & Appearance: Inky black core complimented by dark crimson red/black hues. Nose: Liquorice allsorts are prominent, as are dark plums, ripe blackberries and dark chocolate undertones. Hints of vanillin oak and spice. Palate: A robust and rich palate with solid structure. It fills the mouth with liquorice before introducing blackberry and plum flavours. Hints of dark chocolate, vanilla and spice are noticeable, and the succulent fruits promote firm, chewy tannins with good grip. Finish: Lengthy finish with liquorice evident and ripe fruit carrying through until the end.
