Ripe and earthy, this is a bit softer than you might expect from Victoria, but it gets a lift from juicy acidity and persistence to go along with its pure blueberry and currant fruit. It all lingers enticingly. Best from 2010 through 2015. 800 cases made, 100 cases imported.??–HS??Region: Australia / Victoria / Central Victoria Select to Add

Michelton is a Victorian winery that seems to fly under the radar but is capable of turning out some impressive wines. The 2003 Print Shiraz shows rather tight, restrained, savory aromas but wonderful balance, length and structure on the palate. Hints of leather and meat combine with raspberry, cherry and vanilla notes, rich tannins and a concentrated, long finish. ——J.C.(12/31/2008)—— 91
