Description
The Juno Shiraz 2024 presents a lovely, dense, opaque ruby colour. On the nose, enticing aromas of white pepper, whiffs of lavender, and ripe plums mingle harmoniously with notes of smoked meat, cherry, and raspberry fruit. Medium to full-bodied, this wine boasts a beautifully structured palate, where fine, velvety tannins provide a silky backdrop to plum, spice, and luscious berry fruit. Its dense and rich texture is complemented by a fresh, balancing acidity, offering both richness and vibrancy. The finish is elegant and persistent, showcasing lingering flavours of blueberry, plum, and subtle spice. A refined and approachable Shiraz, this wine delivers exceptional quality at an affordable price - a testament to its value for money.
