Philip Shaw, The Idiot Shiraz, Orange, New South Wales, 2015

83
Tasted by: Alex Hunt MW, Roger Jones, Anthony Rose
(at Decanter's June 2017 issue Australian Value Shiraz Panel Tasting, 16 Feb 2017)
Drinking Window: 2018 - 2024
Primary sweet berry aromas with rubbery reductive notes. Juicy on the palate, showing a mix of red and dark berries and a lovely aromatic lift. It's supported by a good structure of acid backbone and tannin. Needs time but showing promise.
