Chapel Hill Abacus Shiraz chateau-petit-lion-du-marquis-de-las-cases The palate is bright andThis is a great Shiraz for the budget conscious. It's dense and generous get your claws into kinda stuff. Handfuls of plums and chocolate feature large. Peppered steak and burnt ends make a neat cameo with a blackberry shine on close. There is a lot of chew factor on the finish too which tosses in some Christmas cake spice for good measure. Camping and barbecues are sorted.
