Sally’s Paddock is an Australian icon wine far better known there than in the USA. It is sourced from a 4-acre, dry grown parcel yielding a blend of 40% Shiraz, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Merlot fermented with native yeasts and aged in new French and American oak for 18 months. Dark ruby colored, it displays a strong mint/eucalyptus component as well as spice box, violets, and assorted black fruits. Elegant and medium-bodied, it is exceptionally concentrated and focused, savory and complex. It conceals enough fine-grained tannin to evolve for several years and will offer a drinking window extending from 2012 to 2022. Importer: The Wine Angel; www.WineAngel.com
