This is old vine Clare Shiraz with the vineyard planted in 1974, the wine was aged in both French and American oak for two years prior to bottling.
A deep red in the glass, the nose has lovely concentration of dark berry fruit that's lead by plum and blackberry and accentuated by spicy and vanillin notes that come from a mix of both American and French Oak. With time in the glass the nose becomes more savoury and earthen whilst maintaining it's dark fruited core.
A medium to full bodied wine that all revolves around drying, blackberry and eucalypt inspired tannins with juicy acidity in tow. The finish is long and has plenty of savoury flare to blackberry and plum fruit.
Another great value release.
