I found the wine overly acidic for a brawling Barosaa Shiraz. Dark, stewed fruits on the nose and palate. Fairly one dimensional. Not as fat and deep as I hoped. Nice to drink for $20/btl but definitely not $50/btl. No way.

Floral aromatics and flavors. Honey, and citrus and stone fruits. Fresh acidity yet a weighty palate, especially as the wine gets to room temperature. No detectable oak. True to the variety, and very enjoyable. Will be buying again.

Apricot, honey flavors and aromatics. Acidity and length are short. Wine is good enough but not very interesting.
