Tasting
To start with, a great name for a wine... even better the wine is very good !
This is a wine that will polarise, it's sourced from sunbury and has a high proportion of whole bunch which gives great aromatics and smokey flair to the black fruited nose. The palate shows the hallmarks of the wine making technique with a stemmy and savoury expression of dark plum that is accentuated by generous spice and taught but fine tannins.
Some might describe this as a Pinot drinkers shiraz (i.e. in the style of your Bannockburn / By Farr)
