Plenty of youthful energy and life in this delightful Barossa three-way blend. There’s a boldness, too, which is pure Barossa, making for immediate enjoyment. Aromas of red cherry, plum, blue fruits, chocolate and spice. The palate delivers deep set flavours and spice with the role of vanillin oak present and noted, but it is carried well by the bold, ripe fruit. Some alcohol warmth on the finish is also noted but, overall, this is a young charmer at a very smart price.
