  Lots of window dressing, heavy bottle, wax seal, cork. Wine inside delivers though, balanced with a structure that suggests it will do well medium to long term.

  Why oh why do they keep using cork ?
  This is a premium wine that is destined to vinegar inside of 10 years because of the cork.
  Wake up winemakers for goodness sake stick a screw cap on it.
  
  The wine itself is medium to heavy-bodied.
  The nose is a mix of herbs and spices
  
  Some fruit evident
  
  On the tongue, it is smooth and well rounded just a hint of acid and mild tannins.
  Dark in colour , a very nice wine well made .
  
  he fruit for The Vincent is sourced from Bakers Gully Vineyards. Bakers Gully is one of the coolest sub-regions of McLaren Vale and this results in a medium-bodied fruit driven style of Shiraz slightly lighter than your typical McLaren Vale Shiraz.
