2013 Thistledown The Basket Case Old Vine Shiraz

Totally opaque black dark red colour with a deep dark red hue. The nose exhibits aromas of ripe blackberry, dark chocolate and liquorice with an undercurrent of vanillin oak and spice. Big and rich in the mouth with luscious dark fruit flavours of ripe blackberries, dark plums and liquorice flooding the palate. Undertones of chocolate and spicy vanillin oak ensue. Velvet smooth yet structured tannins. Medium to long aftertaste of ripe blackberries, dark chocolate, liquorice, toasty vanillin oak and spice.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
