Bobs African Shiraz 2004

Spicy dark berry fruit combined with clove/cherry neuances on the nose. The wine has a subtle tannic structure. A soft, ripe palate
with black berry flavours culminating to provide a soft integrated tannic/fruit combination. Soft and mouthfilling easy drinking wine. Like a good book, it is hard to put down!
