Taste: Dry, med Plus Acid, med body, finish med Good use of Oak nicly balanced, Apple, Raison, Yellow Grapefruit Pith[the bitterness] Creamy
Conclusion: I really did enjoy this wine, as again not super complex could see this going really nice with a White Fish and Butter Sauce
Nose: Clean, Med Intensity hazelnut, lanolin, plastcine, waxy, light fruit
Taste: Dry, med plus acid, med plus body, finish med Fruit Apple, Green Fruit, Waxy, Toasty BRioche
Conclusion: As mentioned by some other people tasting with it did seem to have a...different sensation as if there were "tannins" some people thought maybe the Acidification was balanced properly as it high acid for a barossa which can't really be natural Not a bad wine, but the graves we tasted was much better tho it was blended with SB and Oak
