Just very slightly austere

and quite saline

I like the touch of minerality that surfaces on the finish and if this can develop additional depth in bottle

Unusual spicy nose

This is even spicier with a really lovely panoply of various spice elements that include sandalwood

Rolf Binder, Hanisch Shiraz other_regions Just very slightly austereFull medium ruby. Complex, expressive aromas of raspberry, violet, gunflint, iron and mocha. Then superripe, dense and chewy, with notes of maple syrup, salt and pepper. A sweet, broad wine with a slightly aggressive back end. A rather successful example of the thick, saline style of Australian shiraz. Stephen Tanzer
