February 23, 2020 - Delicious, ripe and varietal Shariaz. Classic Australian - round, rich, oaky, slight saddle leather notes add interest. This is opulent, but with a structure that os very well-judged.
October 21, 2019 - Delicious, forward, modern shiraz. Soft textures, ripe fruit, excellent concentration. Deep black fruits. Not hugely complex, but opulent and classy.
August 28, 2019 - Sweet blueberry milkshake nose - very ripe, primary, and completely classic S. Australian Shiraz in style.Big, balanced, and structure, but generous. Very impressive, for an entry level shiraz. Sweet dark fruits echo in th lingering finish. Modern, and classy.
June 24, 2019 - Solid, juicy, ripe,sweet, classic Clare Valley Shiraz. Easy to drink, beautifully smooth. Touch of burnt rubber, bramble Shiraz fruit. Very good!
March 3, 2019 - Dark/inky, a little purple rim. Dense flavours, ripe dark fruits, jammy, spicy. Fully bodied, concentrated and weighty.
Ap 5/5, Ar 13/15, Palate 17/20, Overall 3+3/10
Total 91+/100
July 30, 2018 - A beautifully balanced wine.
Bread/yeast with some light oak and pepper on the nose.
Light tannins on the tongue
Soft fruit in the middle
the finish is fine and lingers for a while.
Very easy to drink it is dark in colour and medium in body.
Not jammy and I can find no elements that over rule the others.
This will continue to develop for a few years to 2020 and drink for another 5 .
An excellent wine that will go with Asian style crispy duck or pork belly .
Sells for $45.00AU retail and worth it.
May 2019
I dropped it a point following on the tasting of the Ostler Pinot Noir .
Still not a bad wine and quite sound Oak/varnish/Alcohol on the nose......still needs some time
