- Description
Very darkly and vibrantly coloured, the 2021 Rank & File Shiraz has the most beautiful nose featuring generous quantities of wonderfully intense blackberry and blackcurrant woven together with dark, inviting spice. And there's a creamy character to the fruit on the nose which makes it so, so inviting and, frankly, irresistible. That character continues onto the palate, which together with an absolute ton of ripe, delicious, dark fruit make it utterly delicious. Probably as pleasurable and downright hedonistic as any wine should be. Firm tannins give structure and length and gently remind you that there's a serious side to this pleasure bomb. And amid all this generosity, there's a lovely zesty energy to the fruit too. Lovely to get lost in just on its own but excellent with food; try chargrilled anything or big-flavour something. Yum.
