2016 John Duval Integro Cabernet Shiraz Gift Box 2.25L

Tasting Notes: Indulge in the complexity of the John Duval Integro, a masterful blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz. This wine presents a bouquet of savoury black fruits, plum, and blackberry, interwoven with subtle hints of sage, clove, and earth. On the palate, it unfolds in layers of dark, powerful fruits, offering a commanding depth of flavor. The finish is long and elegant, with nuanced spice, licorice, and finely integrated cedary tannins. The wine is now entering its optimal drinking period, with the potential to age gracefully for over twenty years.
