A bright ruby red color and a sweet nose of dusty rich berries and hints of clove and nutmeg. The palate had nice blackberry and plum flavours with good structure, moderate tannins and a medium finish. It should drink even better in about 5 years.

Good reading, the Kimbarra Great Western Shiraz is even much better again, and I have the blend here for the tasting bench, but many others queuing up to be tried also!
Great new producer, one to watch.

Hmmm.... Perhaps its time for another blind tasting ?
Any of the Kalleske barrel samples left to try ?
