Deep ink cherry in colour, this is a medium to full bodied shiraz with relatively good balance. An oakey and fruity nose which settled after short decant. On the palate it's very fruit forward with notes of plum and blackberry, not overly complex. An enjoyable lingering finish with dusty and grainy tannins which smoothed out over time.

Deep cherry in colour, intensely floral on the nose. The first few sips unveil notes of blackberry, milk chocolate and plum, perhaps with a touch of cinnamon also? Grippy dry tannins, this is a full bodied shiraz with a medium oak finish. Delicious.

Deep garnet in the glass. Nose of plum, blackberry, blueberry with a touch of vanilla. Initially very fruit forward on the palette, almost over ripe. Mellowed after a few hours decanting to reveal notes of leather, currants and a subtle dash of mint. A full bodied wine, with soft delicate tanins integrated very well throughout. A nicely balanced wine overall.
