Hobbs of Barossa Ranges Shiraz - 2012 (750ml) Sauternes and Barsac massive structure and tons ofMedium garnet colored with a hint of purple, the 1905 Shiraz gives classic red and black cherry, blackberry preserves and mulberry notes with hints of cracked pepper, beef drippings, Indian spices, menthol and fertile soil.
