Wine Tasting 56: 2002 Thorn Clarke Shotfire Shiraz from Aust

I tasted both the 2002 and 2003 T & C Shotfire Quartage (Reference Episode 6 & 9) before with you so I decided to taste the shiraz here. This wine was big and complex and I needed some time to air the wine to wake it up. Like the Quartage, this upfront Aussie new world wine came with cassis, black plum liqueur, cola, dry violet and a herbal eucalyptus nose. The wine was dense but the tannin was surprisingly round. More of the above with Maynard black wine gum, black licorice and secondary tastes such as spice, dark chocolate and dark soya sauce followed. I thought the Quartage I tasted was more complex but less brute but this is hot climate Aussie style so it is! I suggest further aging needed.
