Mischa Wine Information
Mischa Estate Shiraz 1999
Winemaker's comments
This intense, vibrant Shiraz shows the deep purple of a youthful wine. Matured for 10 months in 100% new French oak, the warm and inviting wine reveals rich spicy pepper aromas with hints of black currant. Sweetish on the palate, with a soft, velvety texture and lingering aftertaste.
