Very big and tannic upon opening. With decanting, balances out with fruit nicely. Stems, game and dark fruit after some air. Very long finish. I can't wait to have it with lamb.
The wine looks purple colored. The legs are medium. It smells like dust, bell pepper, game and plum. The body is full. The wine finishes long. The wine has medium acidity.

Fruit forward. Not very complex nor tannic. Easy to drink and enjoyable!

Smokey fruit with a little stem on the nose. Mild first taste with exploding Syrah spice following. Excellent Shiraz. Don't hurry to drink.
