We can't even find this wine on the internet available for sale in the US!  Not just this rare 3.0 bottle, but the standard 750ml bottles seem to be sold out, as well.  Rare find!!!


winemaker's notes:


#54 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2009


The wine has a deep center with a dark red rim. The bouquet shows lashings of classical Barossa Shiraz chocolate and plum aromas, given a gentle life from the well seasoned French oak notes. It is a robustly structured wine, with a mouth-filling, generous fruit clothing its firm muscularity. It finishes firm with powdery tannins. It is a fine example of Barossa Shiraz from a top vintage year.


critical acclaim:


"Ripe and round, this is generous with its smoky cherry and black currant flavors, persisting against mildly grippy tannins to create a long, layered finish. Best from 2010 through 2016. 26,400 cases imported. "
