June 28, 2012 - I don't get all the hype. Perhaps an (slightly) off bottle. Still, pretty enjoyable. At $21, I'm not complaining. Drink thru 2017, 14,5% abv.

December 13, 2011 - Going strong although it took a good 20 minutes to open and become approachable. The nose is a big game and fruit number, but not out of proportion and there are some beautiful Asian spices and a little toasty oak as well. The palette is bold but smooth, with balanced liquorice, dark cherry and leather with most of the alcohol now covered up. Still got at least 7 years in it.

July 28, 2011 - WOW. What a beautiful example of Barossa Shiraz and its ability to carry age! Color is deep garnet red and still youthful. The nose is replete with spice and blackberry, smoke, meatiness and oak. Loads of sweet fruit continue to dominate the palate along with spices and oak. This has to be 15+ alcohol though, my only complaint. This wine has great ripeness as the Barossa is want to be. The fruit is so fresh still and tannins tame. There is life left here for sure. There is no mistaking what this is. Unabashed Barossa Shiraz and proud of it.
