Zonte's Footstep Lake Doctor Shiraz 2023

Here's a Shiraz that captures all that is good in South Australia's Langhorne Creek. There's the soft drinkability and flavour that you come to expect. It's medium-bodied, but with plenty of depth and fruit intensity, with a lift of spices and traditional plummy dark fruits. A fine cedar-y edge complements perfectly the sweet fruit flavours. And here's a wine that you'll find awfully difficult to put down. Drink by: 2026-2034. (Ray Jordan,winepilot.com,March 2026)
