Deep dark crimson, almost garnet. Medium intensity on the nose of talc covered red cherries. Nevertheless, phenomenal presentation on the palate. Very harmonious and polished and orderly increasing in intensity of top fruit, pure candied cherries. Nice size structure. Medium body of certain dusty texture. Deepness of flavor and structure from the third quarter acidity on to a sumptuous, subtle smokey and beautiful long ending. Certain 92 pts.

Normally I'm not the biggest fan of the new world but this isn't over extracted in any way. Lots of spices, red fruit and cinnamon on the nose. Very smooth & tender on the palate, tannins are completely integrated. Good length. Quite a nice showing.

Inky dark color. Nose of blackberry, peppercorn and dust. Palate is well balanced with dark berry flavors, dirt, tobacco and very well integrated tannins.

Big surprise, most older Shiraz from Borossa doesn't hold up as this one has. Big eucalyptus influence, intense red fruit.

Inky, rich and sweet fruited, quite some residual here. Oak isn't prominent

A good wine. A very intense. Acidity would be good with some pasta.

Intense dark cherry color with same boldness of dark cherry on the palate and nose. Hint of tobacco. Nice tannins. This is a very good wine.
