“More often than not, shiraz is the best wine in the Oakdene stable.
This is another very good release. It’s flooded with cherry-plum flavour though there are also elements of iodine, smoked meat, black pepper, musk-infused-strawberry and fragrant garden herbs. It presents as seamless; I wouldn’t call it a challenging wine, despite it’s obvious savoury inputs. There’s ample fruit, ample velvet. It’s a lovely drink.”

“A lustrous crimson. Glossy and attractive. This is good. Very. High on personality and a welcome respite from the wave of overtly reductive shiraz that mars the contemporary wine-scape. A seasoning of 15% whole-bunch in the mix. Maturation in French oak (30% new) for 16 months. Ferrous of texture. Saline, too. Violet, tapenade, iodine and salumi notes shimmy long across a rail of peppery acidity. A little more grape tannin would service more savouriness.”
