First Creek Hunter Valley Shiraz Chateau L'Aumerade Ginger and nutmeg spicesGenerous, smooth, and bluefruited, opening with ripe plum and blueberry before moving into layers of mocha spice and toasty French oak. The palate is mediumbodied and mouthfilling, with supple tannins shaped by ageing in French oak hogsheads and puncheons. A touch of savoury earth and gentle spice adds depth, leading to a soft, warm, satisfying finish that reflects the classic modern Hunter Valley style.
