"Very dense purple-red color. Heady, fragrant, deeply spicy aromas of musky, brambly dark berries and plum complemented but not overwhelmed by oak tones of chocolate and smoked oyster. Really saturated with dark fruit flavor, with the wine fruit perfectly supported by suave new French oak and fine, astringent tannins. Exceptionally long on the finish. As supple and harmonious as it is opulent and assertive. Another step in the ongoing evolution of Barossa shiraz."
