December 26, 2014 - Strawberry and plum marmalade, warm and heady. A bit of complexity underneath the fruit. Meh.

August 3, 2007 - Dark purple youthful color without bricking. Blackberry jam and some mint in the nose. Pruney, ripe, low acidity and just a bit of tannin. I haven't tasted a Barossa Shiraz in a while and this seemed like a pretty typical authentic Barossa. 13.5 % abv certainly isn't over the top, but lacks a little freshness.

February 19, 2007 - Bottle was oxidized. Harsh afterbite & the wine lacked clarity. Very disappointing. Might have left it too long in the cellar based on others notes.

7/7/2008 (link) 91 points(Elderton Shiraz) Group's #8 (my #5) – 59 pts; 0, 0, 1, 1 – Dark red violet color with pale meniscus; evocative spice, cigar box, rosemary and berry nose that changes, after 20 minutes, to a Rhoneish bacon and tobacco nose; herbaceous, pepper, pepperoni and tart black fruit palate; medium-plus finish 91+ pts. (least in keeping with the flavor profile of the rest of the flight, which some downgraded it for)
