Friday, December 22, 2017 - By the glass courtesy of BA at 35k feet LHR > JFK. Fresh bottle.
Caveat here is that one needs to like the style and we don't.
Very much new world Shiraz supercharged with American oak ( not shy in the use of it) so the result is a big, ripe rich and of course spicy wineoveralyed with lots of chocolate/mocha notes. Voluptuous wine, very obvious and at times a bit confectionary. A bit too much for our palate leans on the heavy side too.86-87 but then again we don't like this style of wine .
