Barossa Valley, South Australia, AustraliaSpicy, white pepper, tobacco, licorice, vanilla, coffee, blackberry, blueberry, floral aromas with a touch of grilled meat. Rich, round, supple, somewhat fat but tart palate but velvety. Lots of vanilla, peppery, black cherry jam, coffee, chocolate, tobacco flavours. Good fruit intensity but very warm on the finish and a bit tart. Solid effort and fruity for those who like the style.Tasted: 05 January 2009Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
