This wine has a Deep Red colour with a purple hue. Wine delivers intense aromatic expression with boysenberry, ripe blueberry, plum and wild fruits, milk chocolate, notes of vanilla, oak spices, dark cherry and black olive. Ripe fruit concentration follows through to the palate. Full body style with black olive, cocoa, Asian cooking spices, confected notes, sweet fruits. Wine is balanced, fleshy and lively with integrated tannins. Shows a beautiful round and mouth coating palate. The pinpoint acidity gives it excellent persistence and length.
The 2019 vintage was one of the driest we have experienced. Below average winter rainfall, coupled with a dry spring and summer resulted in naturally lower yields across the vineyards. These climatic conditions resulted in rich and concentrated wines, although low in quantity.
95 Point Rated - Huon Hooke The Real Review
"Deep, dark, brooding red-purple colour, the bouquet rich and dark chocolaty, the wine full-bodied and richly fleshed with an apparently strong infusion of oak. A very full-bodied, dense shiraz with soft tannins and mocha, cocoa-powder, dark chocolate and espresso coffee flavours galiore. It has brightness and vitality. A whopper."
