Penfold Magill Estate Shiraz 2003

Description

Colour: A good depth of dark black cherry

Nose: The nose shows instantly recognisable Magill Estate perfume of florals and distinctive assemblage characters. Stylish cedar oak and barrel ferment characters meld in with spice, savoury/earthy notes over plum and raspberry fruits.

Palate: A structurally impressive, 'crafted' wine. Medium bodied, layered, defined and integrated Valrhona chocolate and coffee grind flavours that whirl into a panaforte mix of dates and soaked/macerated plums. Tannins and oak are balanced, evident but not showy
