Yes Travis, on a couple of occasions now, tried to capture it in a bit of a tasting note in another recent thread here on the forum.
Its a pretty exciting wine in terms of powerful fruit expression.
Cheers Craig.

6x Head Wines Contrarian Shiraz 2012 (Eden Valley)

One of the first 2012 reds I have seen released... I plan to go very long on this vintage (as with the rieslings)... lets hope it lives up to the hype...

Tasted today, along with the other 2012 Head Releases.

You'll be very happy, fascinating wine, real quality whole bunch and stem influence, yet intense, smooth ... sensational!

2 x 2006 Kooyong Ferrous Pinot Noir
3 x 2004 Tahbilk Marsanne

I had an outstanding bottle of the 1996 Tahbilk Marsanne a couple of weeks ago and an equally superb bottle of the 1998 in May and have made a note to buy more bottles of this wine at auction.
