A Few Good Men Shiraz 2009

Specially selected from the best vineyards in the Riebeek Valley, the A Few Good Men Shiraz has robust red fruit with subtle vanilla and black pepper to excite the nose. Well considered barrel maturation balances the upfront fruit flavours and the pallet follows through with a lingering finish of berries, spice and beautifully integrated oak.

At room temperature. Goes superbly with grilled steak or game.
