2012 Australian Old Vine Collection Museum Release Barossa Shiraz

Opaque purple hue.  Lifted sweet spiced Shiraz fruit characters on the nose with interesting notes of mocha, herb and blackcurrants. The palate is rich, round and very complex and shows all the hall-marks of great Shiraz treated with good oak maturation to produce a great wine with good aging potential.  It shows ample aroma, fruit balanced with perfect acidity and assuring dry tannins for aging potential. The finish is long and generous, leaving spicy dark chocolate flavours lingering on the palate.
