  The nose is classic black forest gateau. It’s supple with a touch of spice to the fine tannins. There’s a little grip and a touch of chalkiness on the tannins too. Nice juicy fruit on the entry with cherry and raspberry flavours and a creamy mocha character on the midpalate. There’s a lovely meaty, savoury edge which keeps this in a really drinkable place, it’s definitely not a blockbuster. In a lovely place right now.

  Probablement la meilleure shiraz dégustée depuis des lunes. Un vin dont les tanins sont plus arrondies avec l'âge mais encore solide. Un nez de tabac et de goudron sont perceptibles en olfaction. Belle bouche suave et velouté voir satinée!

  Quite light with pronounced acidity. Red fruits, medium finish. Last glass the best so probably better in a couple of years. Good but pricey

  Not too heavy, but lots of structure. Decent fruit. Still somewhat tannic. I had this with a very rich beef dish and it was a great compliment. This wine should last for a while longer if necessary.

  Not bad. I've had bigger Aussie shiraz wines that I liked much more, but this was OK. Kind of a flat profile, not as much spice as I would've expected. Not great QPR.
