Alkoomi Jarrah Shiraz 2001
Ultra-ripe aromas of slightly stressed and shrivelled black fruits with pencil-shavings wood and some meaty, horse hair influences. Spicy, earthy and meaty, with a long and moderately full palate of concentrated dark fruits, chocolate and treacle, polished cedar/vanilla oak and licorice-like undertones. Dries out at the finish, but should make good shorter term drinking.

Winery
Alkoomi
Alkoomi was one of the founding vineyards of the Great Southern region. Located in the northern Frankland River sub region, its recent vintages are returning to the style and structure upon which they developed their reputation. Leading the current releases are the Melaleuca Riesling from 2016 (95/100, drink 2028-2036), a wine of classical perfume, purity and longevity, plus the elegant and restrained Blackbutt blend of red Bordeaux varieties from 2010.
