Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

Spicy and minty aromas, some herbal vegetal suggestions, palate lean and lacks richness and line; disjointed. Moderate length and depth, lighter fruit but has full weight of alcohol. Rather short finish.

Deep crimson; continues the trend for Barwang shiraz of moving from medium-bodied towards full-bodied; has blackberry fruit in vanillan oak on bouquet and palate alike, the tannins soft but complete.
