The bouquet of this Lunar Block Shiraz 2008 is beautifully perfumed fruit and coffee oak. The palette has ultra fine-grained tannins that are totally unobtrusive and provide a solid backbone to hold the wine together with a lovely mouth feel. The savory coffee and clove from the oak combine with sweet underlying red berry fruits and savory blackberry flavors. Like all the wines from the Kurtz Family Vineyards, it is full-bodied, has a solid structure and firm consistency. The complexity is harmonious and agreeable, the wine just slips down and whilst it is ready to be drunk now, further cellaring for 4-5 years will be rewarding.
