  Still a big gutsy wine, needs a bit of warming in the current climate. Has many years life left.

  The oak has settled a bit but the wine is pretty generic in terms of ripe, heavy Barossa booze. Lots of wine making to get it to present this way. Some like it. This is the last vintage in my cellar and at $25 is a good backup for visitors.

  Popped and poured, consumed over 3-4 hours. Coming into its drinking window for me, soft n cuddly but balanced and a long finish. Has the creamed corn some Barossa Shiraz develops.

  Deep inky ruby, luscious dark berry drive with chocolate and oak. Definite acid and firm not over the top tannin. A big, balanced wine that represents what a typical, quality Barossa Shiraz is all about. Great drinking and a lot of life left.
