Note di degustazione
Deep garnet with a hint of purple, the 2005 Cluster M45 Shiraz reveals gorgeous fruits of the forest coulis and blueberry pie scents with suggestions of cloves, cedar and bacon. Medium to full-bodied, quite structured and chewy, it’s showing a bit more age than the previous two vintages at this stage, but still has loads of life, going long and spicy in the finish.

This is a superb example of a blending of Australian and French cultures as well as winemaking from tightly spaced, dry-farmed vineyards that have achieved great ripeness and intensity in the Cambrian soils of this region. A knock-out bouquet of graphite, crushed rocks, acacia flowers, blueberries, and blackberries is followed by a full-bodied Syrah with formidable concentration, good acidity, and tremendous intensity as well as length. This wine needs 2-3 years of cellaring and should drink well for two decades. As profound as this 2005 is, a barrel sample of the 2006 La Pleiade appeared to be even more remarkable! Unfortunately, there are only about 500 cases of this brilliant cuvee. Wine Advocate.December, 2006
