This seriously-endowed, dark ruby/purple-colored 2003 Shiraz offers notes of crushed rocks, violets, sweet cranberries, and black currants. It is an exuberant, mineral-dominated wine with good acidity, ripe tannin, and medium to full-bodied, concentrated flavors. Drink this beauty over the next 10-15 years.Importer: Dan Philips, The Grateful Palate, Oxnard, CA; tel. (888) 472-5283

Dense, juicy and fragrant with ripe cherry, cherry blossom, plum and assorted spices, building up impressively on the palate, finishing with plenty of muscle but some real refinement as well. Best from 2007 through 2020. 55 cases imported.??–HS??Region: Australia / Victoria / Heathcote Select to Add
