Saturated purple colour, with smoky toasty oaky and barbecued meat aromas, lightly spiced, the shiraz component clearly visible here. It's full-bodied and robust, solidly structured and firm-tannined, gripping at the finish. A solid Bin 389. (McLaren Vale, Coonawarra, Barossa Valley, Padthaway & Wrattonbully. 51% cabernet, 49% shiraz. Aged 12 months in American oak hogsheads, 36% new)
