The 2015 Filsell Shiraz has an incredible depth of colour, deep purple red to the core. The nose displays aromas of blueberry, plum, dark chocolate, mocha and vanilla. The sensual, full-bodied palate offers rich flavours of dark chocolate, coffee and vanilla. The tannins provide excellent balance and structure to the richness of the palate. This is a highly expressive Filsell, which certainly makes a statement. While approachable now, this wine can be confidently cellared for 20 years or more after release. Partner it with rich beef dishes such as a tenderloin or slow-cooked beef cheeks.
