The 2015 Barossa Valley Shiraz leads with char and meat, spice and kicked earth, tobacco and clove. This is aging well and very well for its on-release price point of $30 AUD. Sealed under screw cap.

Dave Powell describes this as 'an upmarket version of [Torbreck] Woodcutters'. 15- to 10-year-old vines. New vines all ungrafted, as at Torbreck. Fermented in open concrete vats and aged 12-15 months in 45-hl foudres. Very dark with black core. Rich dark blackberry fruit, dark and a little savoury like a charry character but not oak-derived, as far as I can tell. Dark, savoury but super-silky and fragrant on the palate. Very dark and not overly sweet. Tannins are so silky but there's just a touch of heat on the finish. Drink on the fruit. Deep and rich to the finish. (JH)
Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2015 Barossa Valley Shiraz reveals pronounced blackberry, dark chocolate and black currant notes over hints of black earth, charcoal, licorice and a hint of violets. Profoundly rich and concentrated on the full-bodied palate, it has some delicious savory/olive tapenade notes emerging, supported by firm, ripe tannins and finishing with great length. Retailing at around $25 and with 1,500 cases available, snap this beauty up while it lasts! Feb 17, www.robertparker.com, Drink 2017-2027
