The Black Shiraz is an extreme example of this style, deep colour, huge palate and high alcohol.

Pocketwatch Pinot Noir was produced using grapes grown in Mornington Peninsula and Yarra Valley. It is a delicate red wine exhibiting subtle hints of oak from its nose. Displaying bright fruit characteristics, the palate is filled with red fruit flavours of cherry and raspberry combined with a slight earthy appeal and nuances of oak. An easy-to-drink wine, it can be paired with roasted chicken, pasta, grilled salmon and duck.

There is nothing jammy about this. Palate-staining and brimming with personality. 95 points” (James Halliday).
