A fantastic example of Margaret River Shiraz! 2013's vintage experienced conditions on par with standout years in the mid-nineties and early noughties, and the Siblings shiraz exhibits all the elegance and restraint of the more expensive options on the Leeuwin portfolio.
The nose is loaded with ripe red fruit and hints of white pepper. The pallet is medium in body, with plum in abundance. Anise and smoke mingle with vanilla and dark chocolate before a balanced, chalky finish. Cellaring will develop the wine well for 5-8 years, but is ideal for drinking now.
