Annual Christmas Dinner at the Ngu's 2014 (Wimborne): Appearance is clear, deep intensity, purplish ruby colour. Legs. Nose is clean, medium+ intensity, with aromas of chocolate, vanilla, pepper spice, and blackberry. Developed. On the palate, dry, medium+ acidity, high alcohol, velvety medium+ tannins, full body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of blueberry, blackberry, vanilla, chocolate, mint, and pepper spice. Medium+ finish. Good quality Barossa Shiraz. Can drink now. Oak has integrated. Could still hold nicely for another 2-3 years. But probably will not improve much more.

Very nice notes of plum and dark cherry. Solid Medium to medium-full body. Extremely velvety on the palatte. Medium acidity. Light-medium to medium tannins. Very nice wine. Elegant and a wine to impress. The quality is self-evident. Ready to drink, but could still very strong. Could hold up a few more years for sure.
