Kaleidoscope of true Syrah aromas not overpowered by uber alcohol. Peppery dark fruit and smooth finish. Ripe fruit but style more French than Australia.

Decaying fruit coupled with old world Syrah earthiness. Finish diminishes quickly and isn't very memorable. Med+ body, med acidity, med - finish.

Sampled at the wine store - apparently it’s a Australian wine produced in a french style, or something? And smoother and less “big” then Australian wines tend to be. Jammy-berry nose, but smokey and herbal-y taste. I noticed the flatness that another user mentioned initially, but agree that it comes more alive after opening up. And I like that it’s low in tannins - makes it a more drinkable red, for me.

Very smooth and easy to drink on its own. Less tannins due to it being stored in stainless steel vs oak barrels.

Very nice. Light, fun, and fruity. A great Shiraz for the price.

Light for a Shiraz. Drinks like the Pinot of Shiraz. Still delicious favors of ripe fruit.

Dark cherry with bits of biting skin. Muted for a shiraz, may benefit from maturation.
