A medium to deep red in colour, the wine has a savoury dark fruited nose that shows anise, and well integrated oak.
The palate is an example of a well developed McLaren Vale Shiraz, with lashings of dark berry fruit, plenty of spice and drying leather characters on the mid to back palate.
The wine has concentration and depth of blackberry fruit on the finish that combines with mouth puckering tannins.
The tannins work due to the density of the fruit.
An excellent value wine for the price.
