After opening, a bit closed with a slightly bitter finish but quickly opened up after about 30 minutes and was delightful. Dark fruit, smooth tannins and a long finish. This is drinking well.

Was enjoying with a cheese plate later and it paired extraordinarily well. A nice surprise.

Still a big forward facing shiraz but age has smoothed all the elements into a great bottle of wine. I can’t imagine it will get any better but still has many years of enjoyment for those opening a bottle in the years to come.
Others have summarized flavor nuances of this wine well.
