This was really cool to try. Don’t know much about the producer. I only got to enjoy this as a pop and pour so I’m not sure how it changed later in the evening, but it had dark cocoa dusted dates, old graham cracker and baked blackberry aromatics. Still youthful on the palate with fig, old graham cracker, and red & black ripe fruit. Hope to try one of these again.

Rich and concentrated, with a dark and sumptuous fruit core. Great balance of softness and authority. In a great place right now, with secondaries coming through and showing charcuterie hints along with the blackberry and dark plum, plus that distinctive American oak sweetness. Lovely wine.

OMG! Decanted and after 1 hour it was the most spectacular Shiraz. Sorry it’s my last bottle.

Dark, concentrated aromas. Deep, brooding fruit. Developed, yet youthful. It's smooth and lovely and delicious. Drinking so well right now and yet has a great future ahead.

Minty. Black currant. Super smooth. Very far from a standard Shiraz glop bomb. Surprisingly fresh and lively at 13 years old.

Sweet and spicy with warm vanillin okay. Great fruit intensity. Silky tannins. Juicy. Beautiful length.
