Smoky blackberry fruit comes to the fore laced with a little caramel and spice. Backed up with some pleasing tannins the texture broadened out to develop cream. Rich and warm, the finish was really persistent and all the constituents nicely resolved. Very fine. CHP 93 pts

Full-bodied with toasted notes, cigar box... Loads of fruit... Medium finish. Impressive and surprising to most that it is an Aussie wine when tasting blind. Ready. 91+

A lovely elegant shiraz, with beautiful flavour notes and balance.

- Ruby color and has flavours of violet with a full body. Polished texture with a short finish.

tasted alongside 2010 Quartz Hill Pyranees Shiraz this was annoyingly pruney, too ripe.
On a positive note it's quite savoury, "black bible tannins" I think is the expression (usually used for Clare shiraz).
{13.5% yet tastes higher}. Northern Barossa.
