This is typically bright crimson-red in colour with appealing aromatics on the nose; violet, red fruits and some subtle savoury charcuterie notes.

"A neat, compact, flavoursome shiraz with baked plum and asphalt flavours matched to clove and sweet cedar. There’s an evenness to this wine, a balance, that makes for highly pleasurable drinking. Style-wise it’s ripe and rich but it feels modern and it also feels fresh. Rated: 91 Points Tasted: Jul21 14.5% alc. $24 Screwcap Drink: 2021 - 2027" - Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front.
