  brief notes, tiny pour
  
  N....nothing special, good fruit, some wood
  
  T....medium-heavy body, baccy, tar, leather, nice complexity, gentle tannins, some dusty earthies, old fashioned Aussie Shiraz in a good way....but £195.00 ?? What?? Worth nothing near that.

  Yes the wine is impressive, ripe, thick and long loaded with vanilla, mocha, smoke, dark fruits and has a never ending finish. Now, is it worth $438? Yes if you can afford it. Will last over 20+ years.

  Excellent weight and lovely palate. Very good, quite expensive but some real class here. Only a brief look but impressive.

  Negociants Australia New Release Tasting 2019: Mint, blackberry, pepper and cedar oak. Dense and dark on the palate, but it finds a path toward balance, with the fruit having a fresh edge to lift it up. Very good structure, very good wine.

  Tasted next to 2014 McRae Wood Shiraz. Smoky, spicy, mineral, dark fruit and a bit of oak on the nose. Very layered and complex with lots of depth. On the palate great balance - fresh and vibrant, generous and ripe fruit, well integrated and polished tannins. Very long and lingering. Approachable now, but very likely to improve. 94-95+
