88/100 45

Attractive wine that's sleek rather than voluptuous and dense without being heavy. Very long and linear with satisfying berry and spice flavours. It's a better food wine than many Barossa Shiraz styles with less sweetness and afirm, drying finish. I expect it to cellar well.

Tasted: Mar 2011   Closure: S'cap    Average price: NZD $29 (~USD $22)
