  A bit spicier than I prefer, needs a lot of air time to really show it stuff. No hurry to drink this one.

  Beautifully balanced wine drinking spectacularly good right now. Black fruits and very fine tannins lead to a long finish leaving you wanting more.

  For the price this will develop into a very good wine. Ripe fruit, burnt embers. Needs to shed some baby fat. Good acidity to keep it focused.

  A very structured Shiraz, full bodied, with medium acidity and pronounced tannins (not coarse, but still grippy). Black fruit flavours mix with toast and spice, cinnamon, black pepper, nutmeg.
  Fruity long finish.
  
  Not exactly complex at the moment, but a 5 years further ageing may reveal some interesting earthy notes. Anyway it is perfectly fine if you want to drink it now.

  Dark ink colour fading to violet right at the edge, looks young; heaps of dark berries on the nose and palate, great intensity; medium plus acid; medium-long finish. Great.
