Blockbuster. Very intense, strong eucalyptus aromas, good dark Shiraz fruit. A bit alcohol driven (15.5) warmth. Good length. It’s all a tad much for me who occasionally likes such Barossa wines, but with the right food (lamb and roasted pumpkin) and one day after opening the bottle two glasses are very enjoyable. Good to drink now, don’t see much further improvement before fruit begins to fade, so would slowly start drinking up. No rush though...

This wine is unbelievably big. Open for a few hours, put a cork back in and drink next day. Transforms the wine
