Press Releases

"The 2005 Shiraz spent 14 months in seasoned French oak hogsheads. It is purple-colored with aromas of cedar, tobacco, wood smoke, pepper, plum, and blueberry. Full-bodied, structured, and tightly wound, this intense Shiraz will benefit from 3-4 years of cellaring and drink well through 2015."

  • Smoky full-bodied Shiraz.

  • Also earned a 91 from Wine Spectator: "Rich in texture, but there's a crispness to balance the ink-dark plum and blackberry flavors, lingering beautifully on the refined finish. Drink now through 2015. 330 cases made."

      This is pretty good as it’s good substance and depth but not jammy like some big Aussie red.
