A cola like nose with faint plum in the background combines with dusty oak on the nose. The palate feel is very dry and the fruit subdued with a sour cherry like effect on the edges of the palate and a subdued oak broadening the aftertaste.Clearly a wine that demands food and may fill out and pick up more defined fruit with age. An older style traditional Coonawarra shiraz and good to see an example of this style.

Has filled out nicely with a lovely poised nose and a more rounded palate. It must be close to its drinking window. Very much a food wine.
