Details and technical informations about Winery Maxwell's Silver Hammer Shiraz.
Discover the grape variety: Couderc noir
Simple, fruity reds with a colourful ruby robe, light tannins and unassertive aromas of red and black fruits with herbaceous, foxy notes typical of hybrid grapes. A rustic phylloxera-resistant profile. Now marginal, it survives in a few French parcels and ampelographic collections, a witness to post-phylloxera hybridisation.
