Tasting notes:

In the sub-zone of Maranga in the Barossa Valley, Hare’s Chase is producing fantastic wines. This finequality Shiraz is deep ruby-purple in hue, showing dark berry fruits, black pepper spice and a gentle floral lift with gentle cedar wood adding interest. Vibrant flavours on the palate are supported by lovely, velvet-textured tannins and brisk acidity. An intriguing wine that is integrated and layered. Superb length. This is a wine that would match sweetbreads in an ‘interesting’ sauce, but rib-eye grilled medium-rare would also work. (Patricia Stefanowicz MW)
