The 2002 Shiraz Reserve tastes like a dry vintage port. It may be too much for those with a European palate (but then, I’m a Francophile with a European-styled palate and I loved it). It is flamboyant, extraordinarily rich, full-bodied, and intense, with gobs of blackberry and currant fruit backed up by extravagant levels of glycerin. The oak is largely concealed by the magnificent wealth of fruit. This is classic Australian Shiraz at its finest and is not duplicated anywhere else in the world, so enjoy it for what it is. It should drink well for a decade. To quote importer Dan Philips, “this winery is all about pure, exuberant fruit buttressed with extraordinary winemaking.” Importer: Dan Philips, The Grateful Palate, Oxnard, CA; tel. (888) 472-5283

Highly aromatic with eucalyptus and mint over a solid core of black cherry and chocolate flavors, keeping its oomph through a long, solid finish. A chunky, toasty wine that needs time to develop some grace. Best from 2006 through 2012. 1,050 cases made.??–HS??Region: Australia / Padthaway Select to Add
