The Factor Barossa Valley Shiraz
A must-drink for anyone who disrespects Oz. Excellent on the verge of profound, this has aged even better than Olivia Newton-John. Evoking aged northern Rhones with bacon fat, rich undergrowth and asian spice. Feels like it will still improve.

Jul 8th, 2018WOTN, though 1 pt. separated 1-3 and votes were all over the place. Beguiling nose of cotton candy and sweet red cherry. Seamless and perfectly knit kirsch and compote with that fade and integration you expect from a 13 yr old. Lonnnnng finish. Ready, but will sustain at least 3-4 more years.

Aug 7th, 2016Ripe, sweet oak. Big. A huge swing from the Northern Rhone but juicy and delicious.
