2023 Tim Smith Bugalugs Shiraz Sake and this yearSweet red and black berries, shaved cedar, and roasted spice, with tannin presenting as a fine ripple and a just right softness throughout. Sourced from vineyards up to 100 years old, made with wild yeast, aged in old oak, unfined and unfiltered. Barossa Shiraz without the bombast pure pleasure. This is summer BBQ wine at its finest.
