  A bit of age has worked nicely on this wine.

  lb for lb, consistently one of the best oz shiraz in the mid price point range. ...always a hit with fans of the style, it's big, dark and chewy with enough acidity and back end tannin to keep it from being syrupy or flabby respectively. fruit fwd for sure but there's some earth, tar and bacon on the savoury side to sustain interest.

  Rich, beautiful Oz Shiraz with a fabulous set of acids to keep the wine beautiful. Tannins are very soft (only thing I'd wish to have had more of).
  Lovely and a bargain!
  
  Still but an Akachan. Will evolve nicely for some 10 years or so.

  This is a rather elegant BIG Aussie Shiraz. However, the balance isn't quite there in this vintage. Giving it the benefit if the doubt, I will keep our final btl (of 3) for another 5-10 years and reassess.
  
  Nevertheless, this is yet quite an amazing bottle for the brgain price :+)
  
  Would never kick it out of my bed, even if it farted ;-)

  Far too young, but with very good stuffing and acidity to match. A lighter style of BIG Aussie Shiraz.
