The 2002 Shiraz was aged in 85% American oak and 15% French wood for 12 months. A terrific as well as realistically priced Shiraz, it possesses full-bodied, opulent blackberry and cherry characteristics intermixed with scorched earth, charcoal, and smoke. This surprisingly complex fruit bomb is best consumed over the next 4-5 years. Importer: Kysela Pere et Fils, Winchester, VA; tel (540) 722-9228
