This Frankland River Shiraz from West Cape Howe, being from Western Australia’s Great Southern region, typically offers a more elegant and savory expression of Shiraz than some other Australian counterparts. Expect aromas of dark berries like blackberry and blackcurrant, intertwined with classic Shiraz notes of white pepper, subtle spice (clove, nutmeg), and hints of olive or garrigue. On the palate, it should be medium to full-bodied with a firm structure, balanced acidity, and fine-grained tannins. The fruit flavors will be concentrated but not overly jammy, leading to a long, spicy, and often mineral-driven finish.
