Cabernet Shiraz

Cabernet Shiraz Wine Details
Price:

Description: The blend of Cabernet and Shiraz, while common in Australia, is quite rare in Niagara. From a winemaking perspective, the two varieties complement each other beautifully, with Cabernet Sauvignon lending perfumed red fruit, structure and backbone while Shiraz contributes ripe black fruit, peppery spice and rounded mid-palate flesh. The end result is a nose with hints of mint, concentrated red fruit and accents of fresh cracked white pepper. The palate is full of jammy red fruit accented by Shiraz peppery flavours.
