The 2005 Mr. Black’s Concoction Shiraz-Viognier (4%) offers up a fragrant floral nose enhanced by the Viognier component as well as smoked meat, mineral, and blueberry. Sweet, ripe, and well-balanced, it will provide much pleasure over the next four years. This is another terrific value. Small Gully Wines is a partnership between winemaker Stephen Black and vineyard owner Robert Bader. The portfolio is loaded with remarkable values that should strike a resonant chord in our difficult economy.Importer: Ronnie Sanders, Vine Street Importers, Philadelphia, PA; tel. (215) 533-WINE
