| TASTING NOTE: Matured for 16 months in new and used French and American oak. Full-bodied and robust, picking the eyes out of a typical McLaren Vale shiraz; licorice, dark chocolate, savoury/tarry nuances and firm, but ripe tannins are the architecture for the blackberry and plum fruit, positive oak the icing on the cake. Terrific value. Drink By: 2034. Special Value. Score - 94 (James Halliday, winecompanion.com.au, Oct. 6, 2016) |
