April 27, 2019 - Tasting this from a blind sample set of 10, I was confident this was the Tatiarra Shiraz because it tastes very much like the 2004 vintage that I tasted recently. The distinctive feature is an apple-skin flavor that is uncommon in red wine. This wine also has pronounced aromas from aging, reminiscent of leather, and just a hint of black pepper. Unlike many Shirazes (and new world wines generally), this wine has a definite structure with refreshing acidity and significant tannins; it is not just a sweet mouthful of ripe black fruit. But this wine also doesn't taste anything like Northern Rhone wines either. This is definitely worth trying.
