(Mitolo GAM Shiraz) #1; COLOR-gorgeous dark; NOSE-exploding w/ some citrus components; high quality black cherry soda; melted down black licorice for days; explosive skittle rainbow; TASTE-big boy; balanced; meaty/chewy; this has power; like a classic Marqaux, but with my energy level; like Alex P. Keaton (from "Family Ties") on 6 bottles of JOLT; polished & refined like a Bordeaux, but has an excitement factor; this is what a over-the-top Aussie monster should taste like; gorgeous red fruit juice (pomegranate, strawberry & sour cherry); beautiful, explosive, rich flavors that bring a complexity level that I don't expect from over-the-top Aussie wines; this wine is ripping good; well worth it; JM-95; GV-93
(Mitolo GAM) Mitolo Dear Friends, I’m traveling today so the offers will be brief - I’m typing this from the hotel lounge/computer. Here’s a wine that may be of interest, one that we pioneered in the US market six years ago and it is still going strong. I don’t have any scores (because I can’t log-in to any of the requisite sites on this computer) but I know there are some out there. ONE SHIPMENT ONLY directly from the cellars at Mitolo - our price should be about the same as in Australia: 2005 Mitolo GAM Thank you, Jon Rimmerman Garagiste Seattle, WA Aus7620
