Lots of cool climate Shiraz appeal rolling through here. Coming off vineyards sitting 818m above, the wine spent fifteen months in American and French oak (50/50).
Cherry vodka, berry basket, blood plums, oak char, and vanilla essence aromas. Delivery is soft with decent brightness in the mouth. A tease of apricot kernel comes and goes courtesy of 5% Viognier tipped in. Crunchy like acidity is pitched a stretch beyond the fruit leaving a numbness in the mid palate where I hoped the fruit would have had that fraction bit more depth. A dusting of pepper hangs long on the finish well beyond a couple of minutes blanketing the mouth with engaging warmth.
A good drink. Give it a good decant and off you go.
Drink now to six years.
