Reviews and other Notes
89 pts Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar 2007 Deep ruby. Vibrant red berry-scented bouquet offers suave floral and spice qualities. Silky and sweet, with straightforward red and dark berry preserve flavors, soft tannins and plenty of finishing strength. Some may quibble about the lack of complexity but this is simply delicious.
Winemaker Notes
Youthful, lively Shiraz wine with lots of blackberries and spices along with a smooth palate of soft tannins.
