A seductive mix of ripe (but fresh) black fruits, aniseed, coal, chocolate box, spice and well measured toasty vanilla oak. Sensational. On the palate full bodied with oceans of mouth filling black and red fruit, spice, mocha, aniseed and tar flavours. Not heavy, this is really fresh and lively with rolling waves of fine tannin and refreshing clean acidity. Persistent and long. What a great Shiraz.

Deep, dark fruits led by blackberry and a touch of prune, but no dead fruit; an icon Barossa wine from a great vintage with a virtually unlimited life; tannins and oak spot-on, and bravo for the screwcap.

Heady and spicy, scented with pepper and cloves, this classic Barossa shiraz unfolds sumptuous layers of meaty dark berry and plum-like flavour, smoke and chocolate. Laced with pepper and clove, it’s smooth, generous presence is enhanced by creamy cedar/coconut oak and a pliant extract of firm, but fine tannins. It carries a generous but balanced measure of alcohol, before finishing warm and savoury, with a lingering hint of licorice.
