The Willows Shiraz 2022 Iwai was aged in first-fill bourbonDense, vibrant colour is a feature of this brooding beauty. Very ripe, sweet fruit, reminiscent of plum, blackberry and pepper on the nose. Two years maturation in American and French Oak Barrels has enhanced and complimented the robust fleshy fruit. As a result, the palate is generous, ripe and mouth filling exhibiting berry and cinnamon spice flavours, along with oak derived mocha overtones and harmonious, soft yet refined tannins.
