The Willows Vineyard Bonesetter Shiraz 2008

The Willows Vineyard Bonesetter Shiraz 2008

This wine takes after its name as it is huge. It really could have been called the hulk it is that big and dark. The fruit is open and ready for action with the sweet oak shining bright. The flavours are a mix between blackberry jam, chocolate, tar and the pristine seductive french oak component  In the mouth the wine is a little thick but it definitely makes up for it with the amount of flavour that has been banged into one bottle. I would recommend that this be drunk during the colder months when the richness of this wine could be really appreciated.
