A bit disappointing, i guess it is about my European taste i have at the moment, but too fruit driven, not a lot more to say. Huge classic Barossa wine, maybe a bit unlucky to come after a fantastic Wendouree wine from the same vintage. nothing wrong in the end just not my style...at the moment.

Special smuggled bottle by Craig and sue McGill! Cork was so wet but the Shiraz is meat and fruit perfect. Maybe has altitude sickness. Lots of age to go

What’s not to like. Deliciously mature Barossa Shiraz. Luscious fruit, earthy, mixed all spice and velvety tannin. Simply lovely.

Unabashedly Australian. Nose is powerful and still very youthful. BBQ'd meats and dessicated black fruits. Baked plum on the palate with juicy, soft tannin. Needs some lamb, duck or rabbit to truly be appreciated. I'm very biased and love this wine
