This wine has vibrant plush concentrated fruit and is medium bodied. It will certainly benefit more with some time, so to form more complex aromatics and flavours.

"Fruit sourced from the 400m Ludvigson vineyard. Viognier softly pressed prior to co-ferment with shiraz, matured in French puncheons (10% new) for 14 months. There is no magic number for the percentage of viognier in a shiraz-viognier blend, but 3% is a mighty good indicator of quality, allowing the white grape to have a floral aromatic impact, which is what we see here. Anise and musk bring an X-factor to the aroma alongside black cherry, plum, boysenberry scents, leaves and wild herbs. Brisk tannins give the wine momentum and energy on the palate. Each grape brings something to the glass before closing with a gentle, savoury grip." 94 Points Jeni Port Halliday Wine Companion
