Appearance - Deep red, darker purple than common reds. Slow-medium legs. On the nose - dark cherry, light alcohol immediately, then slight leather as it oxidizes. Taste - Strong tannins, lemon, currant, peppermint, very jammy. Dryer than other Shiraz? Finish - Vanilla, pretty smooth.

I am a big fan of this wine and would have rated many of the earlier vintages 90+ and one of the best big fruit forward shiraz bargains Since about 2015 i think the quality is diminishing.. not happy.

Spectacular? No, just good solid drinking and works incredibly well for a sangria
