Rockford Rod & Spur 2013

From Barossa Valley, Rockford Rod & Spur 2013 is a Cabernet Sauvignon/Shiraz blend built for depth and aging. It combines dark fruit with spice and a polished oak influence, yielding a full-bodied red with structured tannins. Ready to enjoy now, it also has cellar potential; pairs well with grilled beef, lamb, and aged cheeses.Tasting notes:- Appearance: Deep garnet.- Aroma: Blackcurrant and blackberry with plum notes, plus cocoa, espresso, and subtle vanilla-spice from oak.- Palate: Full-bodied and dense, with dark fruit, mocha/cocoa notes, and integrated oak; firm, refined tannins and balanced acidity.- Finish: Long, spicy, and tobacco-inflected with a lingering chocolate-tade.
