Decanted for an hour - could have used more time. Given the price and age, this was not bad. Label is right on - raspberry, plum, vanilla and spice. The finish is fairly hot, but that lessens over time. Overall, a pleasant surprise that it is fairly drinkable.

Not great, but good. An average Shiraz (midlevel tannins) but good with food - I would not try to drink this on its own, not enough complexity or interest in the different flavours.

Deep purple red not much on the nose but very smooth taste, Black fruit with chocolate/mocha on the finish.
