2016 Bests Wines LSV Shiraz Viognier

“Inspired by the great Shiraz wines of the Northern Rhone in France.
This wine contains Shiraz from the best elevated vineyards in Great
Western and is co-fermented with a small amount of Viognier.
The Viognier helps brighten the colour, lift the aromatics and polish
the Shiraz flavours on the palate”
