Generous and long, dive into veneers of interest via cedar, vanilla and cloves. There is a flicker of warmth but that blows off. A Shiraz that builds wonderful momentum with time in the glass, its release in the USA has returned a swag of awards. Given the Americans' love of bigger wines, you can see how this won their favour. If you like 'em big, it will probably win yours too. Decant well before drinking if you are to enjoy it now.
