This one's been sitting written on hotel stationary as a coaster for about a month now.
Bress Heathcote Shiraz 2010 14% VIC
Biodynamic/organic
Ruby/garnet
aromatics:
Prune
Raisin
Oak (French)
flavours:
At first, a lot of alcohol comes through and makes it seem acidic but this drops away.
Savoury
Cedar
White pepper
Raisins
Cherry brandy turning to subtle plummynedd
Smooth, medium tannins
Beautiful long finish
The oakiness reminds me of a creamy chardonnay.
This is a quality wine which would be wonderful with some lamb, or maybe even goat. I'm a vegetarian but do remember the taste of meat.. mm. We drank this one without food which I think scarcely did it justice.
Go it!
