I like fruit bombs, and this definitely qualifies. Deep color, rich, hedonistic, shows no age whatsoever after 5 years. Like plum jam in a glass, with a touch of spice and neither gains nor loses much at all in the decanter. Doesn't require any thinking but delivers lots of pleasure.

Thank goodness for Australian Shiraz. With a prudent selection, you will have a wine that will stand up to BBQ or black bean burgers, and still be the highlight of the meal.

Huge fruits with a nice finish. Shared with some friends who were very impressed and thought it was a more expensive bottle of wine. Very well received, will buy more.
2nd day- still lots of fruit, very nice nose. Definitely adding to rotation of daily/BBQ drinker

Nice shiraz with that old wine fat creamy taste of dark berries and vanilla. It has some sweetness to it and a long lovely finish. Don't know if its value for money but it is very good and please do give it time in the glass, look at it, smell...smell some more and then taste and just let it get to you, cheers!
