Hungerford Hill Heavy Metal Shiraz Cabernet

Deep ruby red with crimson highlights, reflecting the wine's concentration and youthfulness.

The wine does offer an enticing and complex aromatic profile. Ripe blackberries and dark cherries dominate, courtesy of the Shiraz, while Cabernet Sauvignon does contribute hints of cassis and subtle green bell pepper notes. The interplay of the two varieties does create an aromatic tapestry that includes nuances of tobacco, dried herbs, and possibly a touch of mint.

On the palate, the blend might present a medium-full body with a rich and balanced expression. The dark fruit flavours from the nose does transition smoothly to the palate, supported by well-integrated tannins. The Hunter Valley's signature acidity does provide a lively backbone, enhancing the wine's structure.

The finish is lengthy and satisfying, with the wine's dark fruit flavours and oak nuances lingering on the palate.
