Community Tasting Note

BigfootPMH Likes this wine:

Sunday, January 15, 2023 - Elegant but full flavoured. A great cool climate shriraz that is drinking beautifully (suspect at its peak).

Fully integrated tannins after a 2hr decant, the bouquet has dark fruits but isn’t huge. The pallate is big but not flabby (like some warm climate shirazes can be) with just a tad of restraint evident to deliver a truely enjoyable wine.

Although I love my big warm climate shirazes with a good dose of French oak, I truely appreciate the delicate (but still powerful) cool climate shiraz that this is.

I should buy more and lay them down as this was the last bottle of 2 (the other was a 2008 which was slightly past its peak).
My advice if you have this - drink up and don’t risk it. It’s gorgeous.
