Sidewood Mappinga Shiraz 2017 clos-des-papes-wines Cabernet Sauvignon as lensBunches from the best parcels are carefully selected to be turned into our most exciting wine. Complex and elegant, it has lifted aromas of rich dark fruits, violets and toasted cinnamon and displays a luscious palate of blackcurrants and fresh dates and a long lingering finish with hints of liquorice and cocoa bean. Careful cellaring for eight to ten years will benefit this wine greatly.
