Leather cured meats red fruit on the nose. Takes a good while (1hr) to open up. On the palate it delivers some good red fruit acidity pepper and some spices. Fruit is a little overpowered by the still heavy acidity perhaps indicating this 2010 may well get better in another year or two. Not a typical Aussie fruit bomb and actually very good.

Starting to mature. It’s a little bit sweet and sour which I don’t find particularly attractive without food.
13%, screwcap.

Drinking well but no rush. Still quite primary but some secondary characteristics coming through.

Smooth, remarkably well balanced. Bright fruit, soft acidity. Reminiscent of a northern Rhone, rather than a fruity Australian shiraz.
