Nice bold Barossa Shiraz, not cheap at about $US 100, and has been tucked away for some years. Quite dark showing dark and red fruits on nose and palate and a bold fruit forward Oz Shiraz

Flavours evolving and long lasting finish. — 10 days ago
Fabulous layers of silky tannins burst onto the palate with rich berry flavours
Consistently rated highly (97 & 98 pts) by Western Australian specialists it is probably little known outside Australia.
It’s from Franklin River and not the better known Margaret River region.
Named after the winemaker responsible for 51 vintages of this masterpiece it’s a testament to his craftsmanship.
The 2021 is James Halliday’s Australian wine of 2025.
I think this is better.

5 years in since my last tasting in 2020 and this has matured nicely with subtle nuanced flavours and more complex notes than earlier tasting
Good stuff! — 2 months ago
A good value Bordeaux blend which has s a good cellar defender mid week and you not ready open something with some age,
It’s made to drink young and doesn’t pretend to be competing with top Cabernet from Margaret River — a month ago
Very enjoyable Barossa Shiraz which consistently punches above it’s weight
