Chocolate Box Shiraz

Country: Australia Region: Barossa Valley

 Colour: Red Style: Dry

Producer: Rocland Estate

Description: In 1999, Franc Rocca and family converted a former cow paddock into a state-of-the-art winery, to be known as Rocland Estate. The easy going nature inherited from the Rocca family’s European background, together with an experienced winemaking team, combines to produce food friendly, approachable wines from Rocland’s vineyards and surrounding contracted vineyards. Rocland Estate produces a number of wine ranges.

Ageing Potential: 5-7 Years

Tasting Note: The wine displays deep, dark purple hues with strong coffee, chocolate, black fruit and pungent spice on the nose. On the palate, rich blackberries interwoven with sweet vanillin oak and dark chocolate, finishing full-bodied with balanced alcohol and some oak, rounded and bold. Allow to breathe and will age well 5-7 years. Best served with roast beef and racked lamb.
