The 2005 Godolphin a blend of 80% Shiraz (from 85-year-old vines) and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon (from 60-year-old vines) was aged in 100% new oak primarily 300-liter French hogsheads. It represents a beautiful marriage of power and elegance displaying an inky/blue/purple color as well as notions of black raspberries blueberries graphite and sweet pain grille. Ripe pure and medium to full-bodied with sweet but noticeable tannin it can be drunk now or cellared for 12-15 years.
