As typical of plush full-bodied Aussie Shiraz, this benefits from decanting (or a good shaking). Saddle leather, hickory, blueberry, and a peppery firm tannic finish. Great if you like that sort of thing.

Apr 14th, 2015Big bold blackberry off the bat. Turns to spice and almost a swirling flavor that you can quite pin down. Honestly for this price it's a deal. Has the nature of a 45+ bottle but not quiet the depth. Regardless, grab one.

Aug 1st, 2016A very nice wine--subtle nose of sweet dark fruit, maybe cassis and light plum. Taste is kind of sweet at first, followed by a nice buttery aftertaste of butterscotch. All around great Shiraz for the price.
