A fun shiraz as always, just more mellowed out. This has retained some of plum jam and umeboshi notes from back in 2011 and still has a lot of life ahead of it. A very solid wine for the price.

- Garnet color with medium forming legs. It's balanced and has flavours of blackberry, raspberry and strawberry with a medium body. Juicy texture with a medium finish - Excellent wine.

Still going strong, barely any real age showing. No hard edges, nice wine, though it's a bit simple.

Still drinking wonderfully for its age with good concentration and freshness for its age, even if a bit one dimensional.
