A very special Shiraz from South Australia.

"Another winner from BRL Hardy, this top end shiraz is deep, powerful and rich with masses of spiced black berry fruit and a touch of eucalyptus mintiness. It is ripe and round with a soft, spicy middle and good oak balance." International Wine Challenge Gold 2003

"Plush and classy, neither contrived nor over-ripe; a typically smooth and silky top-drawer red from 1999. Complex and quite exotic, it’s scented with a slightly meaty perfume of violets, cassis, musk and black pepper. Long and creamy, with a minty edge to its dark plum, prune and cassis flavours, it’s enhanced by creamy chocolate oak and framed by firm, but fine-grained tannins. drink 2011–2019" Rating 96 -
