Thokozani Shiraz Mourvedre 2006

Dark chocolate, morello cherries and liquorice allsorts on the nose followed by spicy, liquorice palate, fine tannin structure and good length.

This wine is a good accompaniment with rich full flavoured meat dishes like fillet wrapped in salami with a creamy sambucca sauce - at least we think so.
