  An amazing Shiraz that has the typical dark, rich, concentrated fruit with secondary flavors of plum, cassis and mocha. However, this wine has nicely integrated tannins that provide structure and a terrific fruit filled finish. This is no fruit bomb...it’s a very well made wine from a producer that was under the radar.

  I've read in more than a few places that no wine should cost more than 100 bucks the other 500 or so bucks is just paying for the badge. This wine proves it. Excellent. A match for Grange, Hill of Grace or Armagh. Big, Bold and beautiful Barossa shiraz. Deep dark almsot impenetrable crimson with an almost syrupy texture gives a preview of what is to come. A huge donk of chocolate, pepper and plum on the nose. Full bodied wine. Big red fruit balanced by oak with a hint of mint. Long, long finish of caramel and plum. Outstanding. I'll be picking up a few to cellar.
