“A lustrous crimson. Glossy and attractive. This is good. Very. High on personality and a welcome respite from the wave of overtly reductive shiraz that mars the contemporary wine-scape. A seasoning of 15% whole-bunch in the mix. Maturation in French oak (30% new) for 16 months. Ferrous of texture. Saline, too. Violet, tapenade, iodine and salumi notes shimmy long across a rail of peppery acidity. A little more grape tannin would service more savouriness.” Ned Goodwin MW

“More often than not, shiraz is the best wine in the Oakdene stable. This is another very good release. It’s flooded with cherry-plum flavour though there are also elements of iodine, smoked meat, black pepper, musk-infused-strawberry and fragrant garden herbs. It presents as seamless; I wouldn’t call it a challenging wine, despite it’s obvious savoury inputs. There’s ample fruit, ample velvet. It’s a lovely drink.” Drink by: 2022-2027+ Alcohol 13.7% Campbell Mattinson The Wine Front 2021.
