Is The Octavius Old Vine Shiraz a good wine?
Tasting profile
A powerful, full-bodied Shiraz layered with jammy plum, dark and dried fruits, vanilla oak, black pepper, chocolate and tobacco, carried by discreet tannins and gentle acidity. Rich, syrupy and well-balanced with a long finish, it drinks youthfully for its age and still has years of cellaring ahead.
