Stunning wine! Nice complexity, great fruit with typical Shiraz notes. A hint of wood and Barossa chocolate, but very elegantly blended in. Long aftertaste with good acidity. Super nice now, but still in very good shape. Better on day 3.

Last bottle, with Wendy and Simon. Served with some "Pond View Skirt Steak" and veggies...slight chill on the wine (it improved wine on last bottle).
From prior notes:"Purple color, opaque and slightly cloudy. Dark fruits, blackberry, spice and cedar on the nose. Palate showing dark fruits, floral notes, cocoa, spice. Smooth texture, nicely balanced at this stage. Dark fruits persist through the mid palate. Full body, medium finish"
This bottle did well with the steak, smooth and nicely aged. Fully mature, drink now

It’s getting time to work these down, there’s an ashy, berry nose to go with blackberry, ash, leather with a nicely acidic finish.

A good Shiraz. Red fruit with some spice on the nose. Red fruit, medium acidity, and resolved tannins. Tepid and muddled. Generic.
