Quite ripe but enjoyable Barossa Shiraz. Still with time on it's side and offers considerable dark fruit, fine tannins and a lick of oak. Decent.

Stunning wine. Just starting to show some secondary characteristics. This is ageing perfectly under screw cap and should only get better for the next few years and then hold for a while.

Was not as impressed with this as I thought I would be. Have read many excellent reviews of this and maybe it suffered a bit because of the quality of the wines drank before it. I found it a little party or stewed which is unusual for Barossa in 2004. Maybe it was just the very sweet oak that was out of balance, but it didn't hit the spot for me. Still has massive fruit and tannins to suggest a long life ahead.
