The varietal expression is loud and clear in this delectable red; the fragrant bouquet shows blackberry, plum jam, toasted spice and vanillin oak characters, followed by a concentrated palate that is supple and expansive. Dense yet silky, and finishes fabulously long and appealing. At its best: now to 2030.

Black/purple colour and very dense, this looks like one powerful shiraz, yet the nose is really giving and improbably subtle. Smooth berry fruit is its raison d'être, mocha-like complexities add dimension, and oak helps frame it with a savoury toasty structure in great harmony. It doesn't have the porty notes of some of its Barossa brethren; instead it has freshness despite high alcohol. Fruit concentration flows through ripe, fine-grained tannins seamlessly, and it has excellent balance. Iron fist - velvet glove.
