...terrific minerality structure definition and prodigious levels of concentration as well as perfume. An inky/black color is followed by aromas of melted road tar licorice Asian spices sweet creme de cassis as well as blackberries and a hint of acacia flowers. There is compelling density great purity and tremendous viscosity yet it is not over the top. There is real definition/delineation to this large-scaled Shiraz...A tour de force in winemaking it stood out as one of the most singular and greatest wines I tasted for this report
