  Good but drink up. Blueberry and some funk, along with some distinct banana, hearty and unctuous. I think it's a bit baggy though.

  Straight out of bottle it was bright with an accending palate of juicy dark red fruit and subtle spices that finished with fine smooth tannins. looking fresh and bright for its age with no signs of browning on the rim- drink now if you like a big barossa red with controlled tannins, lay down for at least another 2 years if you want to soften the primaries a bit

  Perfumed nose of plum, violets and lavender. There are layers of black
  fruits on the front to mid palate with excellent oak integration and
  soft but persistent tannins. The wine has great balance considering the
  high alcohol and proportion of new oak
