Strong aromas if eucalyptus-cough syrup, mulberry jam, anise and spice. Very full bodied and quite rich, but at least at this age, not overpowering! Delightful and somewhat reminiscent of an order Aussie Shiraz. 92

Not sure if I've got a bad case of bottle variation or if the first bottle I drank was just shut down. This wine has huge blueberry and spice on the nose and palate. Big and rich and full flavored with a medium to full body. Finish is medium to long.

For the QPR, this wine was disappointing. Lighter in body than expected. Flatter than French or Spanish versions. Glad I tried it, but wish I had bought just one botle instead of two.

This has a fruity start, medium bodied wine.

Prefered the 2003 vintgae consumed earlier this year. This wine lacked acid to keep it lively and came across as too roasted and simple.
