Wakefield Winery Jaraman Shiraz 2015

Lori Kilmartin WSET3 rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

If you want to taste a wine that has won Gold at many competitions - this is the one! Mondus, New Zealand International Wine Show, Berlin International Wine Competition - just to name a few. I tasted it at a blind tasting and it definitely stood out. Dark cherry with purplish hue - almost opaque. Lots on the nose; cinnamon, baking spice, nutmeg, pepper, black cherry and blackberries. The flavours also resonate; ripe cherry, pepper and dark chocolate. A full bodied (almost 15% alcohol) complex wine that is a great value for the price. This would pair beautifully with anything from the bbq; ribs, sausages, steak - is your mouth watering yet? Tasted March 28, 2018

I love the perfumy nose but the wine is too jammy and high alcohol for me.

?Baking spice, dark cherry/berry fruit, sweet vanilla and sprigs of savory herb aromas leap from this stunning multi-region Shiraz. It’s rich, luscious, balanced and beautiful showcasing a dazzling array of ripe fruit flavour with mulberry, black plum and red cherry to the fore adorned with black pepper, dark bittersweet chocolate and hints of eucalyptus. There’s persistent purity of fruit, good structure, complexity and an incredibly long finish and aftertaste. (Vic Harradine)

This has Wakefield's typically impressive, lifted, slightly confected cassis/gummy bear nose with menthol, dark chocolate and slightly roasted notes. There is a whiff of black pepper as well. It's medium-full bodied, quite dense, a touch too sweet and hot, losing some focus on the finish. But certainly tasty. Tasted June 2017

Wineboy rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

Lovey complex nose of berries and spice/oak. The fruit more than matches the oak on the palate. A kiss of sweetness through the long finish. More power of flavours than expected for the price.

Jane Staples rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Shows plum, raspberry, spice aromas, then the palate bursts into spicy raspberry/plum flames. Dry with good acidity. A super match for barbequed ribs.
