Fine for the price, but not a re-buy. Very fresh tasting but no middle or finish, and no real complexity.

This is what I'm hoping for in aged but inexpensive shiraz. Medium-bodied, bright, with good acidity and blue fruits. It's obviously Australian, but really well balanced and picking up secondary flavors. These Aussie wines seem to develop so slowly under screwcap that I could imagine it going another 10+ years. More or less the same over two nights.

First night this was medium-to-full-bodied with muted fruits. Tasted blind, I would have guessed a more modern-style Bordeaux rather than a CA cab. Enjoyable, but not a strong QPR. Second night I found it had fallen apart, and gave me little enjoyment, except in the braising liquid for some short ribs. Score based on first night, obviously.
