I dig this. Cool climate Shiraz hitting the high hats. It's unashamedly generous and layered with interest yet slides down with ease. Winning!
With a plummy drive, choc-dipped raspberries and squishy blueberries go about their work. Christmas cake and fruit bun spices coil around the mouth. Give it a decant or a good swirl to see it at its best. Do this and it opens up aromatically and enables its true personality to shine through. A touch of clove and Five Spice rush late. The oak is a touch forward for now but it will calm. All up, it's a beauty and a wine that will continue to reward for many years. Top stuff and very reasonably priced for an age-worthy wine.
