This 2016 Cabernet Shiraz pours a medium-deep color and comes alive with scents of fresh blackcurrant, blackberry, and dark chocolate, along with earthy undertones and hints of forest berries. On the palate, you'll find deep notes of elderberry, blackcurrant, and rich chocolate, all wrapped in fine, chocolatey textures. There's great mid-palate energy, plus mocha and roasted coconut oak adding a layer of complexity. It finishes long, fruit-forward, and just a touch bitter—think firm, lingering chocolate.
