Woods Crampton Michael John Shiraz 2018

"Matured 20 months in 50% new French oak hogsheads. 2125 bottles. A self-professed 'herculean' wine in an overweight bottle. Medium purple hue. A compact and focused core of satsuma plum, blackberry/cherry fruit is accented with licorice and spice. French oak masterfully elevates structure and persistence without interrupting impressive fruit flow. Grand potential."

Rated: 95 Points
