The Fratelli Classic Shiraz exhibits a pale purple hue and its appearance is very clear. Notably, it displays very few legs when swirled, an indicator of its lighter alcohol content.
On the nose, it offers a medium intensity of aromas that harmoniously balance between fruit and spice. The red fruits come through clearly, with an underlying hint of strawberry and a discernible presence of black pepper.
Tasting reveals a light-bodied wine, the acidity is light, making it refreshing, yet it maintains a very dry profile with subtle fruity undertones, primarily of red fruits. The tannins are medium and well-integrated, providing structure without being overwhelming. Alcohol warmth is minimal, preserving the wine’s light character. Despite its straightforward profile, a hint of green capsicum aftertaste adds a unpleasant finish, that one could go without.
The Fratelli Classic Shiraz is a pleasant wine that balances its elements with a straightforward simplicity. It is notably light in body, simple and easy to drink, making it a refreshing choice. This wine is suited for those who enjoy a no-frills, refreshing wine experience.
