Tasting notes
95% Barossa Valley. Bottle sourced from within the UK. Not a superstar but very well balanced and contained. A little cool – inky and medicinal but true to its origins. Cuts off a little on the finish, but it’s long! (JR)

Very dark crimson. Sweet and rich. Sweet fermented digestive-biscuit sort of flavours. Rich and spicy. Hint of animal. Lots of dustiness but masses of pleasure too. Very long. Lots of acidity. (JR)
Opaque ruby. A heady, intensely perfumed bouquet evokes cherry compote, cassis, violet, pipe tobacco and smoky, vanillin oak. Deeply pitched dark fruit flavors show liqueur-like power, with floral pastille, licorice and spicecake nuances building in the glass. Tannins come up with air but are quickly absorbed by this wine's lush fruit. Smoky and sweet on the finish, which lingers with outstanding persistence.
Blackish crimson. Tricky vintage! Intense purple fruit notes on the nose. Very opulent and flattering. Crushed-ants sensation is alive and well! Firm finish. Luscious fruit and dry tannins in magnificent combat. Medicinal. Great sumptuous finish. (JR)
