Ballycroft Small Berry American Oak Shiraz 2012
Another high-octane release from the Ballycroft stable. Has residual hints of coconut oil, like a walk down a European beach taking in the aroma of sun-worshippers. Dense black fruit, porty and rich.
Sweet fruit, ripe sugar plum, black fruit - a little desiccated coconut sprinkled across the mix.
Reasonable finish, fruit and a little drying grip. Doesn't feel as together as the 'Small Berry French' 87
