Today's delight is:
The Black Stump
An Australian Shiraz from 2012 so quite a young wine, but this continues to be one of laithwaites top sellers - and understandingly so.
The wine is fruity and enjoyable; quite morish in fact. I would certainly be tempted to get more of this one.
It isn't a heavy red and enjoys several flavours. We drank it, as we normally do, without food and it didn't need anything to go with it. We had nibbles of crisps, but I don't think that helped or hindered the experience.
I remember drinking from this vineyard before and enjoyed it last time - it doesn't disappoint!
