Yangarra Estate Vineyards Ironheart Shiraz 2016 Review
This wine smells like blackberry jam and fresh soil. The palate has some weight to it, with low-ish acidity. There is a significant tannin structure that doesn't frame the wine so much as wind through it. It feels like this bottle needs another year or two to settle.
