A fruit forward nose. Black raspberries and cranberries with some earthy spices dominated the nose and palate. Rich and smooth. Easy drinking Shiraz for your daily meals. Polished edges. Almost full-bodied. Finish is smooth and fine. Drink this now quantity. Given the balance it should last for the next 5-8 years.

Friday at the strand (Strand Cellars, Croydon): Blackberry and cherry, sweet spice, slight alcohol warmth lends peppery spice, touch of plummy fruit in support. Juicy, thickly concentrated, black fruits are a little more savoury on the palate, muted tannic burr, fruit drops off quite quickly. Hmm.
