  Showing some age on the palate but still very enjoyable. Good bead and wonderful flavour and length. Not as sweet as some sparkling shiraz on the market, in fact more upfront savoury flavours with some fruit coming through in the background. Definitely has peaked but has a few more years in it I feel. Very good.

  Medium bubbles with excellent length. Lighter tannins making it very enjoyable without having to "cut-through" the palette. Excellent body though with plummy fruit and savoury flavours. Very good. Nose of smoke and bacon. Not as complex as I would have hoped but show very well.
