90 min decant. Purplish-ruby colour. Nose of liquorice, leather and dried berry. More liquorice and leather on the palate, along with fig, plum, hints of eucalyptus and a slight bit of smokiness. Acidity was present enough to hold up to various cheese and charcuterie. A well put together Barossa Shiraz.

Ripe red fruits and pleasant soft acidity and tannin. There is a little bit pleasant sweetness. This is not an over concentrated monster, but an elegant wine with a long finish.

Wine consumed at the 2014 Christmas function. Was over shadowed by the Balnaves, but was a very good example of Barossa Shiraz.

Rather straight down the middle quality shiraz with blackberry, smoke, pepper and menthol. The midpalate is lush but finishes with a bit of heat.
