4/27/2024 - Crunge wrote: 94 pointsThe opposite of the face-smacking, jammy, fruit-forward Australian Shiraz. PnP at cellar temp, and I knew from prior vintages that I prefer this without food as it is nuanced and bordering on subtle. But don't think subtle is bad, as this wine is a beautiful blend of raspberry and blackberry in perfect balance. Interestingly, there's nice kick of pepper on the finish that is unexpected given the delicate flavors of the fruit, but the pepper kick is a great reminder of the varietal. |

4/27/2024 - Fuel55 Likes this wine: 90 pointsThis wine still needs more time. On day 2 and still just opening up. Well balanced and classic in design. But fruit is a little buried by structure. I’d wait 5 more years. |

2018 Hickinbotham Shiraz Brooks RoadMcLaren Vale more |
4/27/2024 - Lion's Share Likes this wine: 93 pointsStrawberries, red licorice, and hints of black pepper on the nose. The palate leads with a fleeting suggestion of vanilla that vanishes so quickly one isn’t entirely sure it was ever there. A second sip confirms. What predominates on the tongue is bold blackberry and spiced plum, with notes of sage, cigar box and black licorice. This is very fresh and velvety in mouthfeel. The finish is long and fruitful. Decanted for 90 minutes, poured at 68 degrees. It continued to evolve as it warmed to room temperature in the glass. |
