About the Wine: The wines have Australia have never really captured my imagination. That said, the Wine Spectator #2 of the top one hundred last year was a Shiraz from this same vintage. It was at a very different price point, but it still gives me hope of finding something I've missed.
About THIS Wine: It is almost opaque in the glass with a clear, dark red rim, Dark fruit is heavy on the nose. The palate is full and satisfying. The tannin structure is solid but not gripping. There is nice acidity and the finish stays with you.
Drinking This Wine: This could be a sipper but it really wants to go with grilled meats. Not a bad BBQ red.
Overall Impression: I get lucky sometimes. This is a really nice bottle for this price. This wine is a good value.
