Little fruit on the nose but some dried spice, fumes and the rubber mentioned below! Palate is dry and longish and slightly bitter. Some kirsch hidden in there somewhere but don't really think it's worth looking for.

On the nose, fresh dark berries, plum, pepper, rubber, spice, and paint fumes. The palate is generously fruity, filled out by savory flavors of earth and oak. Mouthfilling and full bodied, it finishes with wooly, somewhat astringent tannins. A good value at AU$20! Paired well with Moroccan-spiced lamb chops.

Purple/red in colour with plum and cherry flavours, good length rich and full on the palate.
