A seriously concentrated blend of 84/16% shiraz/cabernet sauvignon from the northern Barossa subregion of Ebenezer. Aged for 16 months in (100% new) 92/8% French/American oak. A polished, glossy rendition of the great Australian blend from Ben Glaetzer. Wonderfully pure blackberry and plum fruits with a touch of blueberry lift, melding with deep spice, licorice, Old Jamaica chocolate and earth. Cedary oak flows in on the palate before retreating back into the fruit which shines brightly throughout. Tannins are gravelly and long and there is a sense of freshness to its form. Self assured and wonderfully pure drinking. 95 points. Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion July 2022

84% shiraz, 16% cabernet sauvignon, open-fermented, matured for 16 months in 100% new hogsheads (92% French, 8% American). The colour is typically deep, the bouquet complex, as is the palate (no surprise), but doesn't hit you with its alcohol (most surprising of all). It's hard to imagine the French oak could be the answer. Regardless, the black fruits (berry and currant) hold sway until the finish, when the alcohol does raise its head. I'm happy to accept that, but would choose my beef steak with care (5cm thick).
