Eucaberry may be too simplistic but - the Australian character here is obvious but fun in a obvious way big abv 14.5% by volume

Herbal, blue with medium weight. Slightly hot and short.

Aged nicely - in a good place. Dark plummy slightly sweet fruit balanced with some briny olives. I’ll drink pretty much anything John Duval makes.

Soft blanket of blue fruit. Still an adolescent.

Succulent dar fruits along with herbal and peppery notes. Compared to 2013 that I can remember, this 2014 seems to be more fleshy and a bit more jammy. Higher acidity as well. But the sense of balance was still there. Can’t go wrong with John Duvall wine.

Vibrant, complex. Loved it. It was a blind tasting and I could have sworn it was a WA Syrah. It wasn’t jammy, but lush dark red fruit with nice mid palate grippy tannins. John Duval Winery.. JDW! Love those initials 😄

Plush, super soft juice with great fruit and a subtle spice kick. Yummy stuff.
