Dark magenta, there is oodles of chocolate here, with mocha, coffee beans and more dark chocolate. A flick of vanilla, with soy and aniseed. There is already some early complexity. The wine has very good length and lingers with intent. Like this wine a lot. It is well balanced, full of flavour and utterly delicious. Drink over the next six to eight years and forget the label.

A supple fruit driven McLaren Vale Shiraz from a pretty good year. Loaded with juicy ripe plummy fruit with a little lift of raspberry. The palate is soft and supple with neatly integrated oak and fine chalky tannins in support. This is a super value red wine for drinking over the next few years, while it retains those vibrant primary fruit flavours. Drink: 2023-2029; Price: $25.00; Rating: 91 Points; Ray Jordan
