About the best I can say for this is that I didn't dislike it, but really there is a sad lack of definition or character here. Sweet, almost jammy fruit that could be from anywhere in Australia. Apparently this was 69% Shiraz/31% Cab from McLaren Vale, Wrattonbully, Padthaway, and Coonawarra. The 60% 1-year old oak is present but not overwhelming. Overall nothing "wrong" with it per se and pretty easy to drink for c£16 on offer, but it is a bit sad people might think was representative of the best of Oz!

Not as good as the last showing but still decent for the money. Dark, ripe with good acidity.
