Cape Mentelle Marmaduke Shiraz

Cuddly and approachable, this is purposely a fruity Margaret River shiraz, brimming with fresh cherries and juicy plums. But fear not, there’s plenty of black pepper to keep it dynamic, and supportive milk choc oak and firm, fine tannins to keep it honed. It will appreciate a year for fruit and oak to integrate. $15 at WineStar, Discount Wines, No Frills Wine, Wine List Australia and Aussie Wines.
