Food Pairing Guide | This wine lends itself to a variety of meat dishes. The spicy overtones work well with Asian and Indian foods as well as complimenting the more traditional flavours of roast lamb or slow cooked beef. |
Nugan Scruffy's Shiraz refined, elegant and complex aromas of red berries, plum and blackberry entwined with dark chocolate, earth and vanillia. A lifted note of parma violets in a smooth, full-bodied style, displaying elegant tannins and powerful fruit concentration. A well-structured palate of dark plum and mocha melds with earthy, spicy notes.
Dry warm sunny days with cool nights produced optimum fruit flavours. After picking, the Shiraz are crushed and softly bag-pressed in the traditional style to avoid the extraction of bitter tannins. The wine is fermented in static fermenters, followed by 12 months maturation in new and seasoned French and American oak prior to the final blending.
