  EYE: Dark garnet - so dark that light doesn't project through the glass; NOSE: Ripe, dark fruit and spice - reminds me of cherry Luden's cough drops from my childhood; PALATE: bright berry flavors (raspberry, blackberry) but tannins and acidity were a bit high for my taste...perhaps they will lay down with more age.

  A nose of dark fruit and spice, dark purple in color. A full bodied and smooth Shiraz, with raspberries, blackberries, chocolate and spice on the finish, an enjoyable wine with a great label.
