Canoe Tree Shiraz Cabernet

This Shiraz Cabernet is produced by Berton Vineyards, run by Bob Berton a highly regarded family winemaker. Named Canoe Tree from the rare magnificent examples of red gum trees found throughout Australia which bear the shapes and scars of the canoe removal by early Aborigines, who carved whole canoes from the gum treeÇÖs bark. The Shiraz Cabernet is ruby red with purple hues. The spicy elements of the Shiraz are perfectly matched with the soft blackcurrant and berry notes of the Cabernet Sauvignon. On the palate the two grapes blend seamlessly to create full bodied wine with a long length. Wonderful flavours of blackberries and a touch of oak make this wine a great match for many different dishes and goes particularly well with roast meats.
