Woodcutter's Barossa Valley Shiraz

Black licorice.

Smooth, fruit and licorice on the palate.

Vintage 2016 - Peppers, cedar, sultry. High in alcohol and high in bitters. At this moment I miss balance.

Smelled like a Northern Rhône...meat, dark fruit, flowers. Fun wine.

Ample and generous dark fruit, some animal notes (not Brett), spices and eucalipt. Good body and length

Very one dimensional and lack of depth and finish. Black fruit bomb and jam, little bit heat.

Pretty good Syrah. A bit harsh, but mellowing out with time. Torbreck has a good reputation, so there are more wines to be tried.

Heavy plums and blackberries on the nose, meaty as well, and coarse brown earth. The flavor follows the nose. Big luscious but held back by some hot alcohol.

Dark burgundy in color, smell of black fruit, nail polish cured meat and white pepper, soft silky tannin, medium to long finish with a sweet after taste.

Spice and fruit combo on the nose is great. A touch of dusty oak. Love the fruit weight this has going and well balanced with the tannins. Drinks beautifully.
