Inky crimson-purple; laden with voluptuous, but not jammy or dead, fruit in a blackberry, licorice and prune range, the tannins remarkably soft for a full-bodied wine, oak unobtrusive.

Very deep, dense, dark red/purple colour. An extraordinary bouquet of black fruits, licorice, espresso coffee and almost toffee-like charred oak. It's full-bodied and dense, fleshy and smooth, with lashings of soft, velvet-smooth tannins and great harmony. Masses of dark chocolate and aniseed. An opulent, extravagant, showy style of shiraz.
