Bottle number 2611.
Deep and dark ruby red. Layered nose with smoke, black raspberries, black cherries, and slowly developing darker characteristics. Moderate plus tannins (7.5/10) and strong acidity. Full bodied and mouthwatering. Delicious spices on the palate with layers of dark red fruits, blueberries, charred wood, a little savory and iron. Long and lingering finish. Drink till 2035.

This premium Shiraz sees a ton of American Oak but the fruit punches through it nicely. Smells like Heitz eucalyptus!

Very good. A lot of flavor. Very balanced wine. A bit expensive but I thought it was worth it.
