Varieties: Shiraz, Viognier
Region/G.I.: Goulburn Valley, Nagambie Lakes (Central Victoria)
Alcohol: 14.0%
Bouquet: Tar and sweet plums
Flavour: Taste is a little tarry with fruit there. Unfortunately it has a similar taste to Benedryl, the cough medicine of my youth. Nice tannins and length but I struggled with the flavour connotation. The longer it sat in the glass the better it tasted. The Benedryl taste almost vanished and was replaced with quite a nice peppery spice
Points: 82
Notes: I recently bought this as the liquor shop had the 2005 and 2006 together. I'll have to dig up the 2006 the next time it is cooler and raining
