Delicious Shiraz from Barossa. Smooth with a long finish. Powerful fruit and elegant structure. Love the notes of cassis. So far this is the best of my AUS 23 in-country tasting tour. — 3 years ago

9.3

Medium ruby in color; black cherries, hibiscus, and violets on the nose; high acidity; fine grained, medium plus tannins; tastes like cherries, pomegranates, blackberries, and crushed gravel with a long finish. I love it, and Nellie says it's ok. Do not decant this wine. It lost some of its aromas after an hour. — a year ago

Very good. But I prefer the single variety Shiraz over the blend. I don’t think cab adds to AUS Shiraz, quite honestly. 😎🇦🇺 Note that I am rating the Vetus Purum reserve wine. Delectable just cannot classify it right. — 3 years ago

Complex but not as good as I’d hoped. Because it was a bit tangy at the start. The middle and finish were good, with a blend of the usual Shiraz fruits and smokiness from a Malbec. — 4 years ago

9.4

The 2020 Nerello Mascalese Pirrera is delicate and coy in the glass, showing just nuances of rose and black cherry contrasted by dusty earth. Silky and refined, it washes across the palate with a pure blend of red and wild blueberry fruit. A mineral staining adds tension toward the close. It finishes structured and long with a citrus concentration to balance as tart raspberry and sage slowly taper off. Patience will be required to tame this structured Etna Rosso.

Very bold style of Nerello! Great fruit, nice floral component, light tannin. This will only get better with some time in bottle. — 3 years ago

9.0

Only moderately aromatic, barely present dried strawberry and kind of generic cherry aroma. Palate shows this is very well made, with good structure, but also strongly acidic and tannic. May just be shut down and will blossom with time, not sure. — 4 years ago
