Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2009 Generations Shiraz is intensely scented of blackberry preserves, creme de cassis and prunes with underlying notes of sandalwood, baking spices and cedar. Full bodied and generously fruited with toasty, warm berry flavors, it has a medium to firm level of chewy tannins and lively acid, finishing long and a little earthy. Drink it now to 2016+.
