  Nice but lacking a bit of wow factor. Not overly complex and possibly a little too soft?

  Classic Oz blend of Shiraz and cabernet. The Shiraz fills the hole that cabernet has right in the middle. Cork held up well, drinking beautifully now. Plenty of time left, no need to rush this one. Tannins well integrated after 11 years, dusty leathery characters with great length. Perfect on a winters evening.

  NobleRottersSydney - Barossa Old Vine (Fix, St James, Sydney): {cork, 14.4%} [Greg] Fine-looking cork, extracted at table. Far and away the most savoury of the reds tonight. Dusty, leathery, spicy nose, developing in character. Ticks all the medium boxes for weight, acid, chalky tannin, and indeed length of finish. The oak is subtly grainy, and spiced plum with currant fruit is most present on the evolving palate. This is fairly ready now, but will hold a while. The most old-world of the table wines here tonight, and it’s the quintessential Oz blend!

  Drinking nicely, secondary characters starting to show, long balanced finish, a little Christmas cake in there as well
