A deep, well integrated old school Barossa Shiraz. An absolute delight to be shared.

Super ripe and dense, but oak was in check and was hinting at some lovely bacon fat and graphite characters

Always great to taste single vineyard. Drinking well but still had a long life. Good balance, fruit but also showing developing characteristics. Classics Barossa.

Incredible shiraz. Rich port-like flavours that make this a very special wine. Looking forward to further development.
