Zonte’s Footstep Lake Doctor Shiraz 2021

Delightfully ripe and immediately appealing, the wine shows dark berry, violet, game and pepper spice aromas on the nose, followed by a succulent palate displaying fleshy texture with fine-grained tannins, offering terrific drinking. At its best: now to 2033. Score – 93. (Sam Kim, wineorbit.co.nz, Feb. 2023)
