  11 years young. 1st day was full of fruit but had tightness and alcohol taste. Day #2 muted alcohol and soft tannins with expressive fruit. This one is still kickin. Love Aussie Shiraz.

  Purplish turning dark red at the edges. In the mouth there is lots of sweet blueberry, chocolate, blackberry and a hint of something crunchier like cranberry. There's a hint of menthol too. It is not at all jammy, but the fruit manages to be both pure and sweet. More of the same on a smooth finish. A very nice wine.

  Still dense dark purple notes with chocolate notes - colour all the way through. Big black berry and currant fruits, some leafiness and a savoury, meaty note. Maybe a dusty note, but otherwise big, fresh and youthful. Big but balanced cassis taste with a little eucalyptus. Well integrated tannins, good structure and lots of life. Fruity,sour finish.
