2015 Noon Shiraz Reserve
Community Tasting Note
Jason Wu Likes this wine:
Tuesday, January 5, 2021 - Appearance: medium garnet.
Nose: medium plus intensity; aromas of dark cherry, chocolate, prune, medicinal, lavender, black pepper, cloves, licorice, charcoal. It’s developing.
Palate: dry, high acidity, high tannins very smooth, high alcohol, full body, medium plus flavour intensity, dark plum and silky chocolate come through. The finish is medium plus.
Overall, it’s a very good wine. Can drink now, has potential for further ageing.
Very big wine with full of dark fruits and spices. Very high alcohol of 15.5% but still in great balance. The fruits are intense and the acidity is high enough to counter the alcohol. It also has some herbal and medicinal notes for complexity. Although it is high quality, it’s not my favourite type. Prefer my Shiraz to be a little restrained and has some finesse.
On day 2, no evolvement on the nose and it's quite plummy and fruit centric on the palate. Not sure how this wine may evolve with ageing.
