Immensely powerful and rich, while remaining graceful and structured, the wine shows blackberry, blueberry compote, mulberry, game, cedar and vanilla characters on the nose, leading to a superbly weighted palate that is intensely flavoured and persistent. It is rich and opulent with plush texture and silky tannins, finishing impressively long and delicious. At its best: 2022 to 2035.

A best barrel selection of what would appear to be highly extracted and tannic wines that need a minimum of 5 years, preferably more. Some of the language used on the label is, well, eclectic. It is a massive, full-bodied shiraz, the hope being that it will retain the balance it presently has for 10 years. It is that hope that drives the points.
