As we get closer the weather may be a factor for the fishing, but the debrief and wine tasting is definitely on!!
......and a review of the wine?
Reserve Shiraz
Spicy oak, blackcurrant fruit, depth in the bouquet. Touch of graphite and earth too. Medium-bodied now and very tight, almost strict in oak and tannin framework holding fruit intact. Finishes with spicy oak flavours. It's a touch sour and firm really, but some will enjoy its firm, finer feel.
Vintage: 2011 Score: 87 points

A sheer revelation! World-class density, concentration, purity and clarity all in one. Brooding black fruits, dark chocolate and jaw dropping length.
Vintage: 2010 Score: 95 points

The Craftsman in this case is none other than the legendary Grant Burge. You could almost stand a spoon up in this wine. Powerhouse Barossa Shiraz.

NOTE: Cathie will be away, so can somebody look after Roggie.
