A fine example of temperate-grown shiraz. The bouquet pulsates with black cherry, spice, licorice and pepper, the palate opening with a fanfare of dark fruits and finishes with fine-grained tannins. The drinking window is open, and won't close for decades.

Opulent yet graceful and refined, this classically expressed rendition of the variety shows blackberry, blueberry compote, vanilla and cocoa characters with elegant infusion of spicy oak on the nose. The palate is concentrated and multi-layered, while remaining poised and sophisticated with outstanding focus and flow. Superbly structured for gracious development. At its best: 2020 to 2030.
