  After enjoying a series of similar aged and priced Heathcote shirazes over the last few days, this was the least impressive.

  I was underwhelmed with this. 12 years old now, and should be hitting its straps, but really it was just an average red which needed 2 hours in the decanter to become approachable.

  {screwcap, 14.5%} Malt, cola, chocolate & earth. Later, with some air, there are sweet plums. The palate is both hard and warm, a characteristic I often seem to find in young Heathcote reds. Crunchy, spiky acids frame medium gritty tannins; it's medium/full-bodied, but still warm, finishes fumey and with short/medium length. Not a hugely expressive nose, not a memorable palate. Perhaps time will help, but it's not so impressive just now.
