You may remember we featured this wine and sold it out last year.
Well our Down Under ship came in with the same vintage and it"s still drinking at it"s peak right now, maybe even better! This full bodied Shiraz is the perfect wine for anything on the Barbie Mate!
90 Points
The Wine Spectator
"Blackberry, currant and blueberry flavors are dense, intense and powerful, mingling with black licorice, sage and spice notes, with a brambly undertone. A spicy hint lingers on the finish..."
Our Thoughts.........
This richly concentrated Barossa Shiraz is indicative of the style for which Australia"s top production region is famous. The wine is dark in color, rich and dense. There are ample tannins balanced by the powerful fruit. You will note the hints of blackberries, dark cherry and ever so slight eucalyptus flavors upfront and on the finish.
Fire up the grill and bring on the meat!
