title: Backsberg 2007 Pumphouse Shiraz (Coastal Region)
description: With 16 months in French and American oak, it should not be a surprise that this wine is as rich and wonderfully wood-spiced as it is. Earthy spice by way of clove, cinnamon sticks, anise root and cigar box bring the typical dark fruit flavors to another level. Balanced and drinkable now with a finish reminiscent of a tanned hide.
variety: Shiraz
designation: Pumphouse
