April 27, 2019 - Very nice barossa shiraz. It was a solid dinner wine and had a slightly thicker mouthfeel, and strong berry tones. It was well aged although could easily have coped with more cellaring. A really enjoyable wine.

August 10, 2013 - Deep crimson colour. Strong Shiraz fruit on the nose. Big fruit flavour with big dry tannins on the finish. A rich, juicy red that fills the mouth with flavour and texture. A good value and reliable wine from the Vale.
