Hoosegg 'Self Made Up Man' Red Blend
Deep red colour. Strong intense complex aromas showing great depth of fruit with the Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cab Franc dominating the characters but the shiraz helps support the edge on the strong fruit characters and soften the texture of the palate. The oak adds complexity and with the shiraz give a very complete very interesting wine. PS
"Very fragrant aroma of violets, blue fruits and spices. The palate is intense and bright, elegantly structured and taut, medium to full-bodied and concentrated. Power without bigness.” 93 points-Huon Hooke
