"A cooler vintage has bent this to a peppery and spicy zone with a very fragrant, sappy delivery of bright raspberries, red plums and blackberries. Oak bolsters the spicy direction of the fruit here. The palate has a succulent and mouthwateringly fresh core of red fruit with sleek and long, polished tannins. Red-cherry and plum finish. Drink now."

Woah. Evocative whole bunch spice, pan juices, florals to the fore. It’s fragrant, bitter, driving, long and black fruit edged. Adelaide Hills or Hermitage? The long and sinewy palate is almost too bitter, the tannins pulsate through the very much mid weight palate. Rift with spice. Light and even bony. A superb S & S Shiraz, but an anomaly. I like it. Best drinking: Likely better next year and will live for fifteen years easy. 18.5/20. ozwinereview.com, 19 November, 2019
