1998 Oliver's Taranga Shiraz

A spectacular wine from a historic vintage. This wine is right at its peak now. Upon opening, a fabulous display of aromatics ... mouthwatering black fruit nose fills the room on decant.
This wine would have likely been over the top ten years ago but is now a stunning example of shiraz's potential over time.
Seductive blackberry and even blueberry fruit draped elegantly over a frame of fine grained tannins. Hints of anise with enough acidity to be food friendly.
