Barossa Valley, South Australia, AustraliaHuge black raspberry jam, orange peel, mocha, gamey, licorice nose with some saddle leather streaks and high alcohol. Ripe, round, rich, hot entry with smooth tannins. Massive black raspberry jam, cola, mocha, vanilla, orange peel flavours with some plummy notes. Great fruit but off the map for heat and alcohol at 15.5 per cent. There's big acidity on the finish as well. Not for the faint-hearted. The blend is 60/32/8 grenache/shiraz/mourvèdre.Tasted: 18 February 2004Tasted by: Prices:
Barossa Valley, South Australia, AustraliaImpressive black fruit aromas streaked with pepper licorice and mushrooms greet you from the glass. So smooth so creamy... with vanilla and smoky licorice flavours. Aussie wine fans will love this style not to mention the ripe cherry plum jam in the finish. Ready to drink now.Tasted: 23 December 2002Tasted by: Prices:
