Amon Ra Shiraz 2005

Aged 18 months in new oak (20% American, 80% French), it is dense purple in color with a nose of blackberry, cherry, nutmeg and intense spice. The wine is voluptuous and yet seamlessly elegant. This exceptional Shiraz is made with grapes from over 100 year old vines, making it an extremely ageworthy cuvee. Supple tannins complement richness and viscosity. The tannin structure and sheer fruit weight of the wine will enable long-term cellaring from 12-18 years.
