  Très bon SGM, 72%Syrah et on le voit dans la couleur et le nez est supporté Par des notes de canneberges et cerises rouges. En bouche bel équilibre du chenetqui arrondit les tannins, belle notes de canneberges et cassis rouge. Dégusté sur place à Penfolds La Grande, $60/bouteille

  Colour: Ruby red
  
  Nose: Dry fruits, dried figs hint of ginger, cinnamon.
  
  Palate: Silky smooth tannins, lovely mouth feel. No obvious oak influence, full of raisins, cranberries, dark chocolate, luxurious yet elegant.
  
  Finishing: Long, leathery notes, slightly dry yet sweetness lingering around.
  
  Wonderful orchestrated of Rhone style with not overpowering of Shiraz, truly impressive.

  A bit more spicy on the nose than the bin 28. The Shiraz notes are very present, shows the 79% Shiraz. Dark red cherry fruit. Quite nice. Supposedly no new oak but has good vanilla notes.
