A great example of a balanced big fruit driven Aussie shiraz. Great! A deep dense purple colour with big round mouth feel. Plum and a hint of mint on the nose. Big cherry with just enough smooth vanilla oak to balance it out. If there is any criticism it is the mid palate is a bit light and empty. Long-medium finish with a citrus edge.

Dark purple colour. Plenty of cherry and blackberry on the nose. Mouth is full of licorice, chocolate and berries. Finishes really long. soft tannins already, but has a good structure for many more years to come.

After trying 2008 that was extremely smooth, I had to buy few bottles of 2010 that should be equally good if not better year. All in all wine is great, but I will wait at least 1 year before opening next one. Hoping to find that smoothness in coming years.

Tannins are really soft and slightly statting to fade away. will drink remaining bottles during next year or so.
