Tasting
I was fortunate enough to taste a 'mini-vertical' of the Shiraz produced by Hairy Arm in Sunbury, the tasting proved an interesting comparison with the wines speaking volumes of the vintage conditions and tweaks to the winemaking process.
The 2013 release is made in a riper style, but still holds on to some savoury structure of 2012, in terms of fruit there is dark cherry and plum which is backed by black jelly bean.
The wine is medium to full bodied and steeped in dark fruits and olive, oak inputs give spice on the mid to back palate with generous length to finish.
