Written Notes

Limestone Cost fruit in this Reserve Shiraz. Given the discount price this gets sold for, you’re looking at good drinking. Minty red fruit lifted by oak sweetness (barrel or stave) before a warm and quite luscious finish. Lots of flavour and depth, if not exactly refined. Goes ok, but the Cab is better.

Best drinking: Now and it will live for a few years easy. 16/20, 87/100. 14.3%, $17.99. Would I buy it? No.
