Tuesday, November 28, 2017 - Whistestop Hunter tour (Hunter Valley): Again this is quite brooding and dense but with more red fruit elements joins the plums and prunes and a slightly lifted note. Juicy, tightly tannic, red and black berry fruits travel long backed by spice. Balanced, very long in fact. Very good as well.
