Savoury, firm drying tannin with a subtle tartness to it

Impressive for an 11-year old Shiraz. Still not my favourite varietal, and far too expensive for what I'm willing to give for this stuff.

Ripe raspberry type nose and flavours. Medium to full bodied. Chocolatey flavours with soft ripe tannins. McLaren Vale - home of heroic and flavoursome Shiraz. 2002 vintage.

Wonderful, mature Shiraz. Fruit more blue/red than black, with great balance as well as length and complexity.

Burnt strawberry, orange peel, and allspice. Fragrant blooming nose with long lasting fruit finish.

Still a very big wine, rich with the stewed fruits mocha notes, very high alcohol.

Very easy to enjoy. Signature McLaren Vale nose with its ripe fruit and chocolate notes. Chewy dark fruit texture and palate with a slight lick of spice on the finish. Yum.

Spicy. Too peppery for me. It's an alright Shiraz... Just alright.
