Two hour decant. Deep color and complex nose. Good structure and mouthfeel. Earth and tobacco with surrounding blackberry. Alcohol is a bit assertive, this would be my only real complaint.

I opened this at our 2/7/15 Australian Rhone tasting. It had a deep, rich, ripe bouquet of plum, blackberry, smoked meat, mocha, licorice, pepper and spice aromas. The palate was deep, smooth and concentrated with flavors that followed the nose. Our group’s average score was 91.5 points.

Extremely good. Full bodied with a nice balance of fruit. Seamless texture. Smooth finish. We liked this one a lot!

Deep, full bodied shiraz that was not over the top. No detailed notes as drank at party.
