Tasting notes:
Bullnose ’14 is opulent, lush and perfectly balanced. A deep, vibrant purple, Bullnose ’14 rolls out of the glass in waves of mocha, oriental spice, plum and dark, dark cherry. Lavishly textured with concentrated layers of raspberry and blackcurrant. Elegant, faultless, a wine of great finesse - the 2014 is the perfect celebration of a quarter century of Bullnose Syrah.

Outer quote mark The legend continues with this exceptional 2014 offering. It is totally seductive on the nose displaying dark plum, blueberry, violet and game characters with nuances of cedar and spice. The palate delivers awesome power and concentration, while remaining elegant and poised, with outstanding fruit purity and layers of delectable flavours. Tannins are in fine and in abundance, and frames the wine seamlessly. Built to last, this is a must for syrah fans and collectors. At its best: 2018 to 2034.

Outer quote mark Spice - Lots and lots of spice here. There's loads of white pepper as well that's dusted across raspberries and plums. The oak is played just right, really letting the fruit take center stage. The palate has plenty of textural interest, ripe plums and red cherries and fine yet sturdy tannins that carry understated power. This is an absolute beauty! Drink now to 2025+.
