Positively delicious 8 year old #westernaustralia #shiraz. Unlike many Oz Shiraz, legitimate varietal aromas of smoked meat, black olive, black/purple fruit, leather. Gratifying acidity on palate balances out rich dark fruit, finishing with coffee notes, a touch of black pepper and fine tannins. Excellent wine.

Lovely Shiraz - went super well with steaks on the grill! Super concentrated, great fruit but not to the SA kind of deep ruby red. Still awesome!

Interesting story about this wine...grown & crushed in Western Australia, the put into refrigerated trucks and transported 3 days to Hunter Valley for finishing. Not terribly complex but pleasant enough. Houston Costco low cost find.

White pepper and blueberry on the nose, along with a little funk. Blueberry and ripe cherry flavors, smooth, and long finish. No e!

Very good, and with an almost effervescent quality to it. Would get it again.
