This is how good a Shiraz can be. Too often the Aussies come out with both barrels blazing, ending in a wine with all heat, and no character. This wine was a perfect balance between Aussie strength and a an enjoyable Shiraz. The Velvet Hammer.

A big kick in the nuts. Lots of fruit, finish, and overall character. Merlot Rocks!
