Bob McDonald

Dark dense Ruby in colour - impenetrable - almost black. Intense black fruits - black currant with a note of creosote. Rich and sumptuous on the full bodied palate, approaching blockbuster. A style of Shiraz that McLaren Vale does so well. Soft smooth pliant tannins. Great length and persistence. A good cooler weather red. Made by Steve Flamsteed of Giant Steps fame.
