About the wine
Rich and voluptuous!
- Just as Jen is a legend of the Naked Wines story, her Rebel Shiraz is a leading light in her range of beautiful Victorian wines. It has been consistently heralded by Angels with buy-again ratings over 90%! The warm and dry 2016 vintage conditions allowed flavours to develop fully in the vineyard, and the small berry size ensured bright colours and flavours were locked in to every bottle!
- Punching well above it's price point, the nose has plenty of ripe plum and berry fruit with hints of chocolate. The palate is full, rich and smooth, with lots of mid palate fruit and a long finish.
- This Shiraz is a blend of four different parcels of wine, from four vineyards. With all Jen's TLC at each step of the winemaking process, the overall balance of the wine is tough to resist with good length and tannin that rounds out the experience beautifully. It's definitely for lovers of rich, full bodied reds, especially at under $9!
Best before
Ready to enjoy now, or it will mature beautifully for 3-4 years until 2020.
Serving advice
Open and allow to breathe for 1-2 hours before serving, or decant if possible.
Food match
This wine can certainly handle a bit of heat from the kitchen - the spicy flavours in the wine will compliment hot food perfectly. Try it with a spice-crusted beef fillet, masala potatoes and split peas; or a chickpea and cauliflower pilaf.
Contains sulphites
