Tasting note The Rib Tickler Shiraz
The nose is immediately treated to ripe raspberries, blackberries, and a hint of toasted caramel and oak. On the palate, an explosion of juicy red fruit, soft gingerbread spices, and a touch of vanilla follows. The finish is silky smooth and round. A nod to the name Rib Tickler, which refers to something that makes you laugh for a reason.
Food Pairing
The Rib Tickler Shiraz is delicious with roast beef, grilled meat, and juicy steaks... or oven-roasted vegetables or a mushroom risotto. Inspired by Bourbon and barbecues, this is the ultimate wine match for slow-cooked dishes.

The vines enjoy a somewhat cooler environment here due to the presence of the San Joaquin and Sacramento river deltas. The wine ages for 4 months in oak barrels. This adds liquorice, spices, and that extra bit of 'oomph' to the already delicious wine.
