The impact of oak is profound on the nose giving a charred spiced influence, with blackberry fruit somewhere in the background. A full bodied expression of shiraz with ample plum and blackberry fruit that is soft, sweet and supple. Oak doesn't push things to far and if anything gives flow and plushness to the wine. There is just the right amount of acidity to tame the fruit and oak.
As always this is a style that not everyone will enjoy, but everything is in its place and at $15 a bottle will have legions of fans.
