Giaconda Nantua ‘Les Deux’ Shiraz, Beechworth, Australia

The Nantua range are the perfect alternative for those who can’t afford to drink the flagship wines of Giaconda as their everyday quaffer!

A cool late ripening season has delivered a delicately spiced Shiraz with notes of cracked pepper, beetroot, red plums and olive tapenade. This wine is immediately appealing; the tannins are soft with perfectly balanced acidity that helps draw out the vibrant red fruit flavours.

Very approachable in its youth, this will develop complex notes of sous-bois with a few years bottle age.
