"Bright, full ruby. Brooding aromas of cassis, licorice, menthol and cocoa powder, plus a slight greenness. Then youthfully backward on the palate, with red fruit and spice flavors enlivened by firm acids. Shows good extract and a core of subtle sweetness. Finishes with firm tannins and very good but not outstanding length. Still rather dominated by its backbone today, and built to last."

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.
