Rich, full bodied, but not very expressive. Over-extracted style, but left me hanging when it came to flavor. Waited for the Aussie fruit bomb to hit the pallette, but it never came. In fairness, I got this on special from Wine Library, but if I had paid full retail, I would be unhappy.

Quite ripe but enjoyable Barossa Shiraz. Still with time on it's side and offers considerable dark fruit, fine tannins and a lick of oak. Decent.

Easy to drink. Blackberry and blueberry flavors, full bodied. A little hollow on the midpalate. Smooth finish.

Very smooth after a couple of hours decanting.

Fruity, flavorful, with enough finesse to compliment rich foods. Precisely what you should expect from an Australian Shiraz.
