Cherry red in the glass, with blueberry and blackcurrant on the nose, along with vanilla bean and char notes. An incredibly powerful expression of Barossa Valley Shiraz, showcasing multiple layers of rich fruit wrapped around firm ripe tannins intermingled with distinctive rum/raisin characters, candied figs and sweet praline biscuits which flow through to a long and persistent finish. Mid palate adds creaminess and sweetness too. Tannins are tight & focused, providing a linear framework balanced by a sweet acid finish.
