Medium-deep, garnet-purple in color, the 2010 Hyland Shiraz is scented of ripe black plums, black cherries and blackberries with touches of pepper, roses, vanilla and cinnamon stick. With plenty of ripe berry and pepper flavors lifted by a lively acid line, this medium to full-bodied wine is framed by a medium level of rounded tannins and finishes with a medium-long length. Drink it now to 2016.
