Anvers Razorback Road Shiraz 2022
$26, 14.5% alcohol, screwcap, Adelaide Hills.
Pepper and assorted floral characters blend in nicely with ripe, juicy, cherry-plum fruit flavour. This is a lovely wine to drink. It’s medium in body, generally inviting, and that dark berry-pepper-potpourri combination is a winner. No hesitation; this is a good wine. 92 points.
