Paper Eagle Wines - White Crow Shiraz

White Crow is named after a local dreamtime story. The eagles became upset with their nephews and nieces, the white crows, when they weren't invited to dance. So whilst the white crows were sleeping in a cave after the corroboree the eagles started a bushfire and burnt all the white crows black, as they remain to this day.

COLOUR
Deep red with hints of violet on the edges.

NOSE
Intriguing rose petals and a summer pudding of lifted red fruits, berries and a little lime marmalade from the
co-fermentation with the aromatic Fleurieu Peninsula Riesling. Wild cherries, blueberries, and mulberries and an impressive structure are balanced by the spicy oak.

PALATE
Opulent, intense red berries balanced by soft velvety tannins and supple oak, resulting in an intriguing finish derived from the unique, enlightened co-ferment.

DRINK
Perfect partner for the casual lunch in relaxed settings. Due to the co-fermentation with Riesling, the wine is suitable to a wide range of food, from the freshly caught seafood to a rich pasta dish and red meat in spring herbs.
