"This is what aged Shiraz from the Clare Valley is all about. The wine has great colour for its age, just starting to get a garnet edge before launching into a rich vein of ripe and generous fruits. Blackcurrant and mulberry are now lifted by deliciously savoury leather, spice and baked earth. The palate is then hearty and full-flavoured with well balanced tannins and acidity underpinning dark fruits lifted by ground allspice, fennel seed and truffle before a long and complex finish. A proper aged red that still has some years left in it." - 94 Points, Angus Hughson, WinePilot
Description
"A dark inky red with a fragrant spicy perfume lift on the nose. The palate is complex with a youthful display of dark fruit, while an exotic spice and fresh acidity elegantly balances the fine tannins. The chocolate, dark berry and spice notes are typical of Clare Valley Shiraz, and so is the delightful thrill of fresh red berries." - Winemaker Notes
