I like that it's a juicy style that does not get bogged down in winemaking at the expense of drinking appeal. Some potpourri perfume, dried cherry and boysenberry, aniseed, seasoned with dried herb and a little spice. Not too much in the way of oak, that I can see. Medium to full bodied, fresh and juicy, with subtle bitterness tempering the sweet ripe fruit. Tannin pulls a little grippy on the finish, but otherwise it's a charming easy going Barossa Shiraz that's well worth the asking price.

We were wrong! Our belief that the 2012 release of this stunner was a once in a lifetime anomoly has been shattered right here. A powerful core of brooding raspberry and blackberry, Asian five spice, layers upon layers of complexity and deft grippy tannins. stonishing length, and a wine that ruins the tasting of any of its peers afterwards. Don''t be the one that misses this.
