A bit of wild dingo on the nose and almost a scorched earth - I've never smelled anything quite like it. Also stewed black and dark blue fruit and a bit of raisin. Surprisingly tart on the palette, blueberries and clay. Strangest Shiraz I've ever tried.

Fruit forward, plums, fresh strawberries and a licorice backbone. Elegant yet full bodied.
