latimer Does not like this wine: 87 points
October 18, 2018 - Afraid I am with 1 taster below. I guess it's a wine that divides - the US wine critics love it and it's very much a wine for New World type afficonados...if you like Barossa shiraz you'll love it, if you are more Chambolle-Musigny, you'll use it for your boeuf bourguignon.
It's like kirsch and raspberry liquer plus a lot of raw Grenache - sweet, alcoholic, unsubtle and pretty hard. at 13 years old you'd hope for some softening but it's just supercharged high octane (over) ripe fruit...3 people found this helpful 2,518 views
