Savanha Sun Shiraz 2008

Dark red in colour, the wine shows inviting blackcurrant and black papper on the nose. Prominent berries linger on a well-structured palate with classic hints of spice.

Serve with a pepper steak burger and spice crisp potato wedges fried in rice bran oil.

Wines from selected tanks were blended and fined, and matured for 6 months before bottling.
