Jammy, bright and a little hot. Touch of sweetness delaying the acid.

So jammy on the nose, fruit bomb for sure. Blueberry, boysenberry, and blackberry bramble. Notes of charred wood and meat. A hint of eucalyptus. Nice spice. Medium acid, high alcohol and medium plus tannin. I think it would do well with a few years and a nice barbecued hunk of meat.

Good entry level Aussie Shiraz, definitely has that Barossa backbone.

Color of inky purple. Nice many leg. Nose is bold with ample acidity, dark fruits, strawberries, tobacco leaves, brown sugar, and ripe grapes. Taste of follows the nose with addition of black pepper note, mouthfeel, low tannins, more strawberry and mix if sweetness and acidity. Flavors are plenty. Aftertaste shows more warmth and hickory note. Nicely done.
