Tasting Notes
Early-drinking, lightly fruited, sappy and metallic, this rather cooked and meaty shiraz lacks much by way of life and freshness to lift its plummy, pruney flavours. It’s medium in weight, but dries out towards a savoury, but slightly green-edged and meaty finish lifted by a modest but spicy presence of berry fruit.
-87 pts by Jeremy Oliver
Deeper colour than the varietal; while medium-bodied, has considerable depth to the complex flavours of black cherry, blackberry, spice, licorice and pepper supported by lingering tannins.

easy drinking, ripe fruit favour
