color is deep purple with minimal legs and small border. nose emphasizes a deep earthinees, smoke, and peppery black fruits. palate is similar with dark fruits, earth, pepper. body is medium. finishes with a snappy peppery finish. this is a very unusual australian shiraz. it is not a fruit bomb by any means. perhaps alot of the earth and smoke is coming from the viognier grape. very nice.

Lacks a a bit of structure but perhaps that it is showing its age. Very nice

Very smooth, less depth than expected but nice subtle flavour.

OK. Was smooth in texture but not much fruit. Started to open up after an hour or so
