The outrageously rich 2001 Shiraz Covenant (from 30-40 year old vines) exhibits an inky purple color as well as a terrific bouquet of blackberries, melted licorice, tar, and background wood. Full-bodied, tightly-structured, and somewhat closed, but enormously promising, it should be at its finest between 2005-2020. Importer: Peter Weygandt, Weygandt-Metzler, Unionville, PA; tel.
