This 2012 Shiraz is what you would expect, just in your face wine ! Nose full of black fruits, plums, cherries, sweet spices , light smoke turkey and vanilla, full body with smooth tannins and balancing acidity, very warm and fruity, long finish. My score 87, drink to 2018, chill in the summer ;-)

A favourite in my house. Fruity with a hit of spice and pepper.

Medium to full body. Rich cherry fruit nose, with some tobacco and black pepper. Medium intense fine grained tannin. Well balanced and medium finish. Very typical Australian, McLaren Vale Shiraz.

Lives up to its name. Just what I want in a Shiraz.

Faint aroma of berries. Tannic with light acidity, black current on palate
