Critical Acclaim
90 points Robert Parker
Flowery, blueberry and raspberry-like notes cascade from the glass of this dark ruby/purple-tinged Shiraz. Elegant and medium bodied, with hints of minerals, flowers, and blue as wellas red fruits, it tastes like a Shiraz made with a Pinot Noir-like sensitivity. Stylish and elegant, it should be enjoyed over the next 3-4 years.” (10/05) 89 points Stephen Tanzer’s International Wine Cellar: “Bright ruby. Dense, rather backward aromas of cassis, bitter cherry and black pepper, with hints of anise and clove. Fat and oily in texture, but the flavors of sweet, dark berries, tobacco and roasted coffee offer good verve. Finishes long, supple and on the sweet side. Tasty stuff.” (Jul/Aug 05) According to the Wine Spectator: “Silky, with ripe blackberry, cherry and prune flavors that linger on the fine-grained finish. A solid wine that should get more supple with age.
