Probably the WOTN for me as I didn’t subscribe to the Exceptional category this time. This is in the Outstanding category. From ancient pre phylloxera Shiraz vines dating back to 1860. Medium bodied with incredible intensity and length. Marvellous. — 6 years ago

I'm loving Victorian shiraz these days! Medium bodied, earthy and really well balanced! Mouthfeel is terrific, so much more interesting than your typical Barossa/McLaren vale shiraz.
But also not too challenging.
Great value. — 7 years ago

Sweetish for a Shiraz, strong plum undertones. I love this wine, it is perfect with cheese in particular. — 9 years ago

Beautiful colour
Not fully mature yet
In its peak bracket I'd say
Cherry, blood orange, floral too
Leather, tar, rubber
Little liquorice
Various spices
Palate is amazing
Medium body
So clean, incisive, precise
Tannins present giving support and we are talking velvet...maybe Oz velvet🤣
Though we are tasting quite an old bottle that I paid 35 bucks
I say delicious 😜🙏 — 5 years ago

Rich & broad, with nice structure and surprising freshness. Citrus & apricot mingles with almonds and herby undertones. On the palate quite textured with nice minerality and good balance. Works really well with strong, aged cheese. — 6 years ago

Absolutely so smooth from the first sip. Left bottle open for a couple days after first glass and was divine. No harshness even after first open, slightly sweet with a bit of dryness. Overall fantastic taste. — 8 years ago

A lovely wine clearly worthy of the flagship status it holds. Beautifully balanced with rich and refined tannin, stewed dark fruit on the palate and a mellowed French oak finish. — 11 years ago
