Just over ice with a twist of lemon or orange. Pretty citrus and spice notes. Too bad there was so little made. Makes me wish I had a bigger bottle! — 10 years ago

Lots of tiny bubbles with a thick head. Good aroma of cloves, banana and spice. Smooth, balanced mouthfeel with light malt and a bit of hops. The barrel aging brings the flavors together nicely! — 10 years ago

Drier and more robust than this winery's Batteau Red but just as good with smoke and warm fruit flavors that linger. #vawine — 11 years ago

Not quite as smooth as the 09 vintage, but very very good. Softened with air and will get even better with some time in the cellar. — 9 years ago

Aromas of pear. Both crisp and rich on the palate. Get some green apple on the back end. — 10 years ago

Smoky/spicy nose. Just enough acidity to cut back the fruit. One of my favourite pinots so far. — 10 years ago

Nice cherry bouquet. Very balanced and pleasant. Hold its taste for the whole barbecue dinner. Great value! 2010 — 10 years ago

Great Shiraz from Barossa with great ageing potential. Big core and good tannins, with a floral, spicy, and botanical nose. The pallet exhibits dark vibrant raspberries, black pepper, bay leaf, burnt espresso bean, and silver dollar eucalyptus toward the lingering finish. I still find the RWT to be more my style, in comparison to this beimg more lean in structure and spicy in character. It was a bit less extracted which for some is preferable, but every so often I enjoy more of a rich extracted style of wine. Overall, great effort and I would like to see this one in a few more years.

Cheers!

Some petrol on the nose, lime skin and lime pith and lime zest and even more lime on the palate. The alcohol is hidden well here with some bright acidity and a decently long finish. — 10 years ago

I'm quite satisfied with this wine. The smooth combination of fresh fruit flavorers, enhanced by seasoned plums and a hint of passion fruit, help to create a wine that can be enjoyed at many different types of social gatherings. All in all I am suitably impressed with this Shiraz. — 11 years ago
