Heavy duty bottle. Good dark color. Lighter aroma. Some rubber tubing or a pool toy to go with a hint of plum-cherry chutney. Flavors are stiff and chewy. Licorice and stuff. A bit more on offer than many fruit driven OZ Shiraz. It’s a like-able wine to think over a bit.

N: blackberry, plum, bay leaf, charcoal
P: juicy/jammy fruit flavors, with a savory mid-palate of bay leaf, olives, and black pepper, w a stony/charcoal hint on the finish. Improved a lot w air.

Wonderful aroma. Smooth and velvety. No bitterness. Will definitely get again
