From the renowned 2010 vintage, starting to drink beautifully now. Just the beginning of its drinking window I suspect. Amazing nose of sublime red fruit and forest floor, some cassis, great taste and a lovely long finish. In a good place but should improve.

May 15th, 2018Easy to see or taste why this wine is held in such high regard, particularly the 2010 vintage. A lovely color, smooth flavour and a long finish. Pity I don’t have a few more....

Big nose of spice, tar and blackcurrant. Med to full bodied classic shiraz - black fruit, spice, quite and pepper. Tannins quite aggressive. Still very young and quite closed but v age worthy classic shiraz. 2-3 pt uplift with age. Quite Rhone-like.

Great kick in the pants! Strong acidity clears the palate without being overly sweet.
