Greg Norman Estates, Limestone Coast (South Australia) Shiraz 2012

Sep 17, 2015

By Rich Cook

South Australia’s Limestone Coast is starting to show up on more labels that are making it to the US market, and this wine shows that to be a good thing.  Full-bodied and very rich, it shows real elegance, delivering blackberry and black cherry, with very light hints of menthol and spearmint in a way that lets you know where it came from, but not overtly so.  This is a delicious drink on its own, or try serving it alongside grilled meats of multiple colors.  A Platinum Award winner at the 2015 Sommelier Challenge International Wine Competition.
