TN: Hardys Tintara Shiraz 1996

Post by action2096 »

Opened & Decanted for about an hour. Initially the alcohol was prominent on the nose along with charry oak and restrained chocolate & plum.

Drinking over a couple of hours the wine seemed to open up a little more developing mushroom & tobbaco like aromas which i think the experts may refer to as Forest Floor ?? Overall quite enjoyable although i was expecting a little more from this one. The wine still seemed to offer up plenty of fruit & firm tannins all of which makes me think it may develop further over the next couple of years. Pity that was the only bottle i have :(
