Slow ox for one hour. Medium bodied, cool climate shiraz. Plum, cranberry, tea, earth and smoke come through. Nicely balanced, good acidity, fully mature but feels like it can hold here for a while.

Pop and poured at end of the night. Appearance is clear, medium intensity, ruby colour. Legs. Nose medium+ intensity, with aromas of sweet red cherries, black cherries, blackberries, leather, funk earth and caramel. Developed. On the palate, dry, medium+ acidity, medium+ alcohol (14%), resolved soft tannins, full body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of caramel nutty oak, sweet red cherries, black cherries, blackberries, leather. Medium+ finish. Still alive, but feels like it's past its best. Time to drink up.

Best bottle of the lot. Fruity yet restrained. Good acid, good balance. Lovely.

Best bottle thus far. Drank over 4 days and it was lovely. Tannins were mainly resolved and so, so smooth.
