This is a very young shiraz with grapy, floral notes and some background ground beef character. Not very pretty,...

The 2009 Thorn Clarke Terra Barossa Shiraz is full bodied, fruity wine, with nice aromas of yogurty blackberry, bilberry, oak, coconut, vanilla and green pepper. It has a nice structure with refined tannins (decant for 1 hour) and medium to long finish. Its ready to drink now or hold for short term. My impression: NICE, 89 pts - good value and a recommended buy. Tasted Oct/11.

Big aromas of lush blackberry, blueberry, earth, mint and pepper. Dark fruit flavours, dark chocolate, turning a bit spicy at mid-palate. Full-bodied, chewy. Dry. Ageable, but ready to drink now. Well-made Shiraz, but is bit too bitter for my taste. Tasted Oct/2011 and better on 2nd day.
