This year, hints of the Blue Eyed Boy make themselves known on the nose and the palate. With aromas of blueberry, raspberry, violets, cedar and tobacco, it has a kaleidoscope of flavours that explode in your mouth with layers of blackberry, licorice, and spicy sweet fruit. Super-rich and opulent with a lingering finish of dark fruit and vanilla-oak. There’s a reason everyone asks for The Boxer by name. Incredible power and purity. Incredible Shiraz at an unbeatable price. Pairs with grilled rib-eye steak with sweet carrot puree and a creamy horseradish or red wine sauce. All our Shiraz wines go well with just about any savoury, full-flavoured meats such as roasted lamb, beef short ribs or even spice-rubbed or BBQ chicken. They are also complimented by aged, hard cheeses, or soft blues and is especially delicious with dried cherries, salted marcona almonds and milk chocolate cake!
Wine Spectator
Bright and jazzy, offering an effusive mouthful of cherry, pomegranate and spice flavors that are as aromatic as they are long and vivid. This has density without great weight, and the finish keeps on going. Drink now through 2015.
