The
2007 vintage was a low yielding crop year.
A dry spring and warm summer progressed the ripening of the Shiraz and
produced fruit with lovely varietal characteristics and strong levels of
natural tannins.
TASTING NOTES: The 2007 Greg Norman Estates Limestone Coast
Shiraz is a bright crimson color with plum red hues. The delicate but
distinctive nose opens up in the glass revealing lifted aromas of cinnamon
spice, light cherry wood and cedar oak characters. Additional notes of ripe
cranberry, black cherry and dark plum notes on the nose lead to a medium bodied
palate creating a flavor profile of rich cherry and blueberry fruit. Balanced
acidity and supple tannins ensure a soft and evenly textured Shiraz.
We really liked this wine. Not at all wimpy. Tending toward the dry side, it was full of flavors and could be enjoyed with any meal or just by itself. Very nice!
