CAB-SHIRAZ 2001

CAB-SHIRAZ 2001 Wine Details
Price: $15.00 per bottle

Description: All of the fruit which is destined to become a Van Ruiten Vineyards wine is grown in a sustainable manner, using environmentally friendly practices. The 2001 vintage yielded a rich, generous wine which is loaded with flavors of currants, blackberries, spice and plums. The lengthy finish is the result of patient aging in small French and American oak barrels.

Varietal Definition
Shiraz:
Alternate name for the french Syrah clone grape grown in Australia and responsible for very big red wines that are not quite as intense in flavor as the french Rhone versions.
