The Rockford Basket Press Shiraz is a classic worth seeking out and cellaring. Its appearance is that of a deep garnet shade. This wine opens with an earthy nose which broadens to include underlying notes of espresso, dark chocolate, nuts and a hint of blackberry preserve. It can be described as having firm structure, impressive length, chewy tannins, and crisp acidity. These factors support a ripe concentration of red berry fruit, earthy and mocha flavours that close with a pleasant muscular fruit and dried herb finish. 100% Shiraz.
