Quite a young and tannic Shiraz, although balance and softness was definitely around by day three. Nice milk chocolate and dark fruit nose with perfumes of violets green herbs.
It's pretty forward and tannic, but a good full bodied structure and some cellar potential.

Earthiest / most terroir driven Australian wine I've had so far. Taste some game in the initial quaffs, great aroma, nice tannic structure for a young wine. 2nd night more drinkable without food. More subtle / not as in your face with the earth and game. Even nicer the 2nd night.

Quite a pleasant wine. Aroma's and flavours of blackberry and dark fruits with a hint of mint. Well integrated tannins

Not showing much sign of aging with mostly primary aromas and flavours, will try again in a year or 2.
