The 2004 Shiraz Lodge Hill is a terrific value. Aged in primarily American oak for 12 months, it offers up lovely blackberry and cassis fruit intermixed with notions of road tar, cedar, smoke, pepper, and herbs. This flamboyant, lusty, South Australian Shiraz should be consumed over the next 4-5 years.
