This Barossa Valley Shiraz from the 2018 vintage is expected to display an intense bouquet of ripe dark fruits such as black plum, blackberry, and cherry, layered with notes of dark chocolate, licorice, black pepper, and baking spices like cinnamon and clove, indicative of oak influence. A hint of menthol or eucalyptus, characteristic of some Australian Shiraz, may also be present. On the palate, it will be full-bodied and rich, with concentrated fruit flavors mirroring the nose, supported by velvety tannins and balanced acidity. The finish will be long, warming, and fruit-driven with a savory, spicy persistence.
