Product Notes

Frankland Estate Shiraz is an outstanding, full-bodied red wine hailing from Western Australia's Great Southern Region. It boasts an exquisite balance of vibrant fruit elements, subtle oak influences and refined tannins. This red wine presents an alluring bouquet of black cherry, dark berries, and warm spices, supported by undercurrents of eucalyptus and black pepper. Its taste unfolds in layers, starting with ripe, dark fruits and gradually revealing hints of chocolate and spice. The finish is often long and lingering with trace notes of oak and earthy flavours. Frankland Estate Shiraz is indeed the epitome of a grand, regal, and incredibly sophisticated wine.

Tasting Notes

A wine of depth and flavour. Spice, vanilla and bright red fruit like ripe raspberries and red currants waft out of the glass. The palate is soft and juicy with great length. Pepper abounds, balanced by plum and earthy, savoury olive characters. Lovely textural tannins produce an elegant cool climate Shiraz.
