Very toasty and smoky,little fruits and cedar flavours,medium/full body on the palate but oak overrides the fruits.Prounced but lacks some vigour.A good one made in the difficult vintage.

Blackcurrants,wet stones and some forests floor create the nose.Though a little dull indeed.Opulent fruits and very strong tannins with vivid acidity.concentrated.A wine needs time to become better.Drink it a few years later and enjoy its peak.A good job in such a difficult vintage.

An outstanding Barossa shiraz!It is in its best time now.Really deep colour with a brown hue.Sweet blackberry,coffee and toasty sense with a hint of truffle rush to my nose.Dense,concentrated and savoury on the palate.Soft tanins,complex layers of black fruits,spicys and smoky flavours but still spectacular balance.A masterpiece regarding to its price.
