TEUSNER |
Very deep intense purple colour. Black cherry nose with some cedary notes. Dry, medium bodied, spicy, plum-blueberry-cherry flavours with a lingering, cedar-tinged finish. Has 14.5% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar. Screwcap closure. Not up to the recommended 2013 (**/**+) was released on December 12, 2015 at $23.95. TONY ASPLER / 88-points - Savoury-herbal, blackberry nose with vanilla oak notes; medium to full-bodied, dry, fruity, creamy vanilla and plum flavours with a firm tannic finish. A little too oaky for my taste. |

TASTING NOTE: Deep colour; a full-bodied shiraz in the best tradition of Barossa Valley, new philosophies changing the guard without losing the experience of multi generations of grape growers and makers. Black fruits, bitter chocolate and savoury tannins fill the senses. Drink By: 2035. Special Value. Score - 94 (James Halliday, winecompanion.com.au, Aug. 1, 2017) |
