Obscurite Heathcote Shiraz 2016 (6 x 750ml)

Deep crimson in appearance.   Alluring nose of dark berry fruit (blackberry, dark cherry, Satsuma plum intermingled with woodsmoke, notes of toasted spices and tilled earth.   In the mouth the wine is full bodied, but in no way heavy.   It literally caresses the tongue.   This is a wine that has the feel, shape and flavour of high quality Shiraz; tremendous fruit intensity and depth of flavour without being over the top. Tannins are ripe and superfine. Lovely natural acidity (a feature of good Heathcote Shiraz) provides freshness.  Drinking well now and will continue to develop more complexity over the next several years.
