Tyrrell's Special Release Fiano 2022. Hunter fruit.

Nose is kind of light preserved lemon, saline and citrusy, backed up by fresh pear. The bottle talks a lot about intensity and spice but I don't get that, its pretty delicate and fruit centric. Cold settling probably helps there, it's very pure. Pear juice, a little mineral salinity, then a classic fiano finish getting rounder and more textured than the start. It's not a super intense flavour bomb compared to, say, a Fox Gordon fiano but it's clearly not meant to be, it's about purity and balance and it's done really well.

Langmeil Blockbuster 2017 Shiraz.
Have been saving this one for when were having lamb and it did not disappoint.
Mainly a very refined subtle licorice note and also subtle tobacco leaf taste, an absolute pleasure to drink.
