Deep garnet colored, the pronounced aromas are starting to mature into an incredible bouquet of Indian spices, fenugreek, tobacco and leather over a profound core of fig paste, dried plums and kirsch. Crisp, richly fruited and yet revealing an elegant medium body in the mouth, it has a medium level velvety tannins and finishes very long. This vintage has a lot of life left.

Renowned for powerful, richly fruited Shiraz, most famously from the Barossa Valley, alongside age-worthy Cabernet and cool-climate whites. A warm climate and old, ungrafted vines produce wines of generosity and depth.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
