"Shiraz Cabernet. Not had a Rod & Spur for quite a while. Haven’t tried this wine for a while, either. *Double take alert!*
Comforting style of wine, and easy to ease into. Plum, aniseed, chocolate, cedar and old leather. Medium-bodied, gentle feel to it, with a mix of subtle toasty oak, fine powdery tannin, dark chocolate and exotic spices, tobacco and red fruits bobbing up on a clean and pretty long finish. The charm and confidence of a wine that knows its place in the world of wine. Lovely drinking."

"Rod & Spur always brings to mind ‘Horse & Hound Magazine’. I like that.
Regal sort of wine, if you get the drift, showing that sense of Chesterfield lounges, cigar tobacco, dark chocolate, sweet plums. Safe to say the bouquet is of great appeal. The palate doesn’t quite deliver the same volume as scent, and tannins are light, more a sheath than tension and train tracks, but dark plummy fruit, cedary-clove oak and cool acidity power a just over medium weight red of medium weight charisma. It’s probably a little underpowered for Rockford stalwarts, but it’s a nice wine, safe to say, and cellaring is likely where it will come to the fore."
