  The modern style of two decades ago with a subtle feel to it. Dark notes with some herbs. The alcohol and oak are well integrated. There's a good amount of extract and the mouthfeel is velvety. It finishes dry.

  PnP, re-corked and consumed over two days. Made in the new world style that Arnot-Roberts has abandoned...for the better. Hedonistic but lacking the complexity of their more-recent syrahs. 14.8%

  Really hit or miss with these Arnot Roberts limited productions from grapes sourced from various places. This one was ok. Generally, consume Arnot Roberts young.

  outstanding again. classic alder springs nose of blood, iron, smoke & green peppercorn. deep blueberry/blackberry fruit on the palate. thick, full body. smooth & velvety finish full of minerals.
