Tasting Notes

97
Vinous Angus Hughson - 04 Jun 24
The 2006 Shiraz The Armagh is a bit of a monster, but in a good way. Big, decadent aromas of chocolate, blackberry and licorice are well matched to caramel-tinged oak. While generously ripe, there is also plenty of classic Clare character, with coal dust and dark earthy tones offsetting its ripe core of flavor and deeply set tannins. A long, strong finish is icing on the cake.
Drinking Date: 2024 - 2035

Inside Bordeaux Jane Anson - 17 Aug 22
Needs a good swirling of the glass to open up, still pretty reductive even at 16 years old. It has striking texture and weight, with the raspberry and black cherry fruit shot through with mandarin peel, five spice and fennel, all offering essential freshness against the richer chocolate and liqourice depths. An icon vintage at the property, still muscular and with punch, and although it is ready to drink with a good few hours in a carafe, it has further to go. 100% new oak, a mix of both French and American, bottled unfiltered and unfined.
Drinking Date: 2022 - 2032
