A deep, rich purple color with a lovely complex nose of freshly picked plums, a little spice and some rasberry. On the palate, a powerful entry of licorice, tar and layers of black fruits, full bodied, powdery tannins, great balance and a long persistant finish.

Score: 18.5

I just love this wine. Served it blind to a couple of mates and they were gobsmacked to see Barossa could produce this out of the 2000 Vintage.

Might have to get more...

How long do you think this will cellar for?
