2008 Frazer Woods La Cache Sparkling Shiraz

"Deep brick-red to ruby colour, and a mellow, complex raisin, 'roasting pan' and dried mushroom bouquet. A trace of 'squashed ants'. It seems to have substantial age. The palate is full and generous with a good dab of sweetness, which then turns pleasingly dry on the finish thanks to well-judged tannins. There's a lot of flavour here and generous aged character for the modest price." Huon Hooke
