Blackberry jam and a bit of spice on the nose. Palate is slightly less ripe, but still very. Spice shows up a bit more, with some leather and tobacco. Tannins and acidity just barely keep it in check, but definitely leans on the ripe side. Decent if that's your style, especially at ~$15 or so.

Day 1: Big wine and dark color. Smoke, dark fruits, eucalyptus and crushed rock. Not the most balanced wine but still tasty. 85 points Day 2: Not good. Taste of earth and stewed fruit. Very poor on day 2. 80 points Day 3: Even worse. Recommendation: Pass on this wine. No life ahead and too many good Aussie reds for less money.

Moderate reddish purple in the glass. Red cherry, red currants, and tobacco on the nose with hints of coconut and eucalyptus. Nice firm tannins on the palate but acidity a bit aggressive and out of balance. Still a favorable price to quality ratio.

Past its prime. Nose of clove, taste has a hint of baking spice and mint. Very unique. Nice for the price but not much more.
