Tapestry’s style is to blend bold fruit with ample oak, and that’s the case here, with plum and spice cake notes framed by toast and vanilla. This is a full-bodied, creamy-textured Shiraz, showing some warmth on the persistent, fruit-driven finish. Drink now-2020.——J.C.(2/1/2010)—— 90

Aged in a combination of French and American oak, this is a best-barrel selection, not culled from a particular vineyard parcel. It shows plenty of complexity even at this young age, revealing hints of savory meat and cedar, black olive and even a bit of asphalt, then turning sweeter and fruitier on the finish. ——J.C.(8/1/2009)—— 92
