Repeating earlier notes:
Deep ruby red colour with mouth filling creamy tannins predominantly blackberries with vanilla and hints of Cigar box plus some spices
Long dry lingering finish and aftertaste. Quite high alcohol at 14.8% but it’s not dominant
Classic style Cabernet - ageing nicely 😄

9.3

Deep ruby with lighter rim and lovely floral and spiced nose.
Tannins are silky smooth and well integrated.
Dark fruits on palate with balance of alcohol and acidity, AbV at 13% much lower than typical Oz Shiraz @14.5%
At 8 years this is likely at its optimal drinking age
Excellent Syrah from NZ.

Decanted and it appreciated the time to evolve, and after two hours it was drinking very nicely. Deep ruby with nose of black berry fruits, tobacco and some spices.
Smooth silky tannins and mouth-filling flavours in the palate. Long satisfying and lingering aftertaste.
