August 11, 2018 - Has improved even more the last three years, I think it's on is top now. Nice ripe, round, more sweetness.

October 6, 2014 - Full, tight, concentrated nose with some development. Dark fruit, oak, subtle spiciness, plum and blackberry. Flattering and inviting. Big and direct, but not vulgar or unbalanced.
Fullish, with soft tannins. Violet sweetness and sweet liquorice. Oaky and tasty. Some prunes in the dark fruit. Just a nice touch of mint. And actually quite good grip.
In it's particular style I liked this. It was not too sweet and not at all vulgar. Good Aussie Shiraz that benefit from the sligtly cooler climate in Clare I suppose. -

December 8, 2013 - A minerally aspect tends to overpower expressions of plums on the nose. Medium to full in weight, conceals the high alchohol (15%) fairly well with stewed plums and spicy licorice flavours combining with a meaty character. Not great length at the end, finishes tannic and a little salty. Best taken with food.
