Good deep red, garnet edge, brilliant clarity. Plummy fruit and nutmeg spice leap from the glass. Cassis, a touch of aniseed and a hint of gravel. Black fruits, Satsuma plums and a hint of cocoa follow onto a palate. The tannins are rich and velvety, adding structure and length to a beautifully weighted, bright palate. This is a fine example of cool grown, carefully handled Victorian Shiraz, and will age with distinction for many years.
