Tannic raspberry jam. Decant helped. Still plenty of life in this bad boy. Could go for another 5 or 10 years.

Intensity fruit forward with notes of red berries and raspberries. Dark plum minty nose. Woodsy full enveloping. Lingering chocolate aftertaste.

This is what i like about barossa shiraz. Plump black fruit. A little spice and eucalyptus. Polished dense tannin. I miss the old rotie style blend, but glad to see this one back on the shelves

Well balanced. Very fruity - blackberry and ripe plum. A hint of eucalyptus. Not very spicy for a Shiraz

I am not normally a fan of Australian Shiraz because usually they are unbalanced imo. This one changed my mind. Beautiful aromas of eucalyptus, mint, and cedar box with fruity ripe blackberries and plums. Has a hint of black pepper and tart cherry. Beautiful wine that will go perfectly with my herb and garlic crusted roast leg of lamb

Takes me home to when I was a lad drinking Greg Norman.

Scents of Violet's and methanol pave way to a jammy mouthfeel that has plum, bramble tones, and eucalyptus. Medium body and firm tannin. A herbaceous Shiraz that lingers on the palette. Nice to sip alone or with food.
