DRG Daryl Groom Barossa Shiraz 2024
My Shiraz is a classic Aussie shiraz in style, class and quality. Its big bold juicy and rich. The color is dark and enticing. The nose oozes of blackfruits, licorice, mocha and vanilla. The new oak maturation influence is subtle but adds some caramel and smokiness on the aroma. The palate is pure shiraz. Silky sexy and beckoning to have that second glass. The acidity is evident but needed to help balance the alcohol and juicy flavors that abound.
