Dark in colour with slight hints of spice in smell, Apple notes and easy to drink. Great drop to have after work. Slightly syrupy finish.

Perhaps a tiny step down from Taylors 80 acres Shiraz that’s a year older but you probably wouldn’t notice the very slight harshness unless comparing.

Chocolate, deep thick texture but dissipates quickly. Dark berries do appear towards the middle and finishes quickly as well. Ends w a chalky finish but it works well for it.

Big brute of a wine. Very firm tannins, nice acidity. Not fruit forward but some juicy blackcurrant, tobacco and spice. Medium to long finish with noticeable high alcohol. I imagine it would cellar well.
