Margan Shiraz 2006
Purple in color, this wine has full-bodied density and displays a subtle combination of spicy pepper and tar-like characters which are typical of Hunter Shiraz. It is well structured and shows great palate length. The wine has soft tannins to allow for early enjoyment. However, it should continue to develop more complex flavors over the next three years with bottle age.
