Deep dark ruby red in colour with a purple rim at Dec 2019. nice On opening we have leaping out of the glass ripe sweet Blueberry/Black fruits with sweet plums and prunes too. Nice ripe shiraz fruit here for certain with some good timber, French and American(oak) tho not new but for style its about as good as u get for the money.v/nice indeed On the palate we have upfront slightly maturing fruit with lite to medium bodied maturing mid palate richness and softening oily tannins giving nice length. Good commercial effort . getting ready to enjoy now in my opinion and wont get any better . Langhorne creek area has high production and As i said before the big production crops in 16, 17 and 18 , u will have a lot of Wine hitting the market at very cheap prices to move the stock so u must be savvy and try before u buy if u can. QPR $12 -$15 about right and enjoy with nice red meat. Good Rest. wine if on lists.

Very good. Cleanskin. Colour: deep black berry Bouquet: rich vibrant, plum fruit, blueberries, vanilla bean, spices, delicatessen characters, Palate: as bouquet minus delicatessen character, plus raspberries, black pepper, with huge body, fresh and vibrant fruit, still quite spikey because of youth, long uplifted acid finish.
