Jammy dark fruit, vanilla, oak, full bodied with lengthy finish. Possibly a bit over-reductive but very nice for Australian Shiraz. Great pairing with lamb.

Deep garnet-ruby, opaque core, viscous @ (excessive) 15.8% abv (no typo- fifteen point eight). Nose of blackberry, blueberry jam, eucalyptus and oak notes. Off-dry to semi-sweet, medium(-) acidity, medium-medium(+) tannin high alcohol and obese body. Palate of cooked blueberries, streak/blood, pepper and woodnotes. Phenolic mouthfeel. Good length with astringent finish. Concentrated, powerful and no balance.

Very dark, opaque in glass. Black cherry, vanilla, oak on the nose. Palate likewise, lush with dark fruits, olive, alcohol. Long finish. Not as full in the middle as initially or the finish. Not a bad way to wash down a juicy steak.
