Taylors Wakefield The Pioneer Shiraz 750 ML

The top Shiraz of the estate, The Pioneer celebrates the innovative spirit of founder, Bill Taylor, who had conviction to do things differently, including planting Shiraz at a time when the varietal was only just emerging in popularity. Made only in exceptional vintages and harvested from top estate parcels. Generous and rounded at first with juicy, deep berry compote fruits Elegant acidity and light, long tannins lead to a lingering finish for this powerhouse Shiraz. Alluring, coconutty oak and fine dark chocolate characters, with a deep, soft center of ripe berry fruits. Matured in American oak barrels for 12 months, then a careful barrel selection is made to identify the best ones. The selected few are aged for an additional 10 months
