The Kleine Zalze Vineyard Selection Shiraz is generous and complex on both the nose and the palate, yet not too overwhelming in any way, and presents itself with wonderfully balanced restraint and grace. The palate is caressed by delicious nuances of ripe wild berries, which combine with notes of fine spices and fragrant lavender on the soft finish. The smooth tannin structure forms a well thought-out framework for this highly endowed Shiraz and also provides a great storage potential.
