What to Expect

Australia has certainly made Syrah its own, even bestowing it with a new name: Shiraz. In the warm, dry climate of Australia this noble grape, responsible for some of the grandest wines of France, produces an intense, unique expression that is distinctly Australian. The ripe grapes take on classic notes of black pepper and leather that add depth and complexity to the black cherry and plum fruits on the palate. Australian Shiraz has typically been aged in American Oak barrels which impart the wine with a distinct note of vanilla that can add to the impression of ripeness many of these wines have, but the time in barrel also allows the wines a chance to settle and reveal their rich, voluptuously styled mouthfeel.

This is full soft and juicy in the mouth with aromas of plum, blackberry jam, vanilla and oak induced spice all in balance. This mouthfeel remains nicely fresh though there's not a lot of structure here to support all this fruit so I would opt for drinking this sooner rather than later but it still is a big yet balanced example of Shiraz. 88pts

Wine Skinny

Elegant and nicely structured, with bright acidity and fine tannins supporting blackberry and plum fruit, with touches of warm spices and toast mingling on the moderate finish. Ready to drink now and over the next four or five years.
