Sunnycliff Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon, Victoria, Australia, 2015  

A classic blend of Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon. 

The wine exhibits all the warm and generous flavours of a Victorian Shiraz Cabernet. The palate shows abundant varietal flavours from both Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon. A delicious blend of dark berry fruit aromas including blueberry and blackcurrant. There is a subtle hint of oak and spice. This full bodied wine is an ideal accompaniment for red meat or spicy Italian dishes. Perfect for drinking now.

The excellent Lyrebird and Sunnycliff wines are made by the Wingara Wine Group from their estate at Red Cliffs, near Mildura in the Murray Valley of North West Victoria. Here they have 350 hectares (865 acres) of vines growing a wide variety of grape varieties, both black and white. The climate in this inland part of Australia is reliably warm while the great Murray River which flows down from the Australian Alps brings life to the region.
