Solid 92 now. All integrated No rough edges. Lovely nose with lots of berries and a touch of barnyard. Long slightly mentholed finish. No hurry at all to drink it.

P 95 Dit is een shiraz die goed past bij stoofschotels, een pittige lasagne of een kruidige kaas. Dit is een voorbeeldige shiraz met een ongelofelijke kracht en een prachtige uitstraling. Een toonbeeld van de Australische wijnkunst.

After 3 days, tannins still grip and acidity is pronounced. I would say 2-3 years before revisit. Wolf Blass black Label direction here. Big wine. Needs steak or stinky cheese. My Blass blacks are 20 years old and are still in your face. This one needs to calm down a bit.

18 months on oak, of which 35% new French, develops powerful structure and complexity
Tannins are dark and juicy, black fruit weaves layers of olive, pepper, and 90% chocolate, acidity finishes long. The fruit-dominant nose only hints at the action on the palate.
Screwcap and here for the long haul. Great QPR

Monthly Tuesday group "The Dead Sparrow" #047:Shiraz/Syrah, Australia, France and South Africa. (By AG): Friendly and expressive bouquet with a good amount of menthol. On the palate a friendly wine with good acidity, round tannin and a firm amount of pleasant sweetness. 91 - 92

Supps with Sach, Gabs et al (Read Street, Bronte): savoury black berry and cherry compote with a crushed pepper dusting and a little charcuterie, slightly flour textured tannins. Nice.

Not over-Oaked. Strong tannin finish. Fantastic. Want to see what this is like when it ages...
