  Smooth and supple without being over the top this one shows nice balance which many don’t expect coming out of Australia in this category. A well-made wine that is easy to drink and enjoyable but doesn’t necessarily excite. At $16 I’m not likely to buy again but wouldn’t stop you from doing so. And for those interested in how it is aging I’d say plenty well. Seems this has another 4+ years at minimum in it…

  simple soft shiraz flavors, moderate tannin with too much oak. I didnt recall this much oak in the previous bottle, but its been 2.5 years

  Deep red with hints of pepper on the nose. Smooth tannins with flavors of berry and pepper. I like this wine a lot

  Blackberry, vanilla, indistinguishable herbs and white pepper on the nose. Nice mouthfeel and balance with a soft and well integrated tannic structure. Ripe and somewhat earthy cherry flavor mid palate. Medium length finish with a quick spicy transition. Paired with grilled rib eye steaks and string beans.
