winemaker's notes:
"This just oozes fruit - blackberries, plums and currants - but has firm tannins to keep it from getting too gushy. Lots of tar, smoke and
dark chocolate here too, with the fruit pumping through the finish, Shiraz with 5 percent Viognier. Drink now through 2005."
-Wine Spectator
Rumblings of discord have been heard in the Fairview flock. Bearded and wise elders grumble of the demise of their position, as the frisky exuberance of the youthful members of the flock continue to capture hearts and headlines with their hugely successful Goats Do Roam range of wines. The council of Billy Goats convened to determine a strategy to create a wine befitting their status. An edict was issued from above. Go forth and find the finest fruit, or risk a roasting! And thus the challenge was raised to produce Goat Roti. Selecting grapes that include Shiraz, Viognier, Mourvedre, the elders have come - up with an intense wine with rich fruit, warm spice and a structure that begs cellaring for a number of years. The elders are pleased!

Better buy by the case, the shops are always out of this label, it's a great wine under $20, a table favorite!

Honestly I tried this wine because the idea of "goat wine" was pretty funny. However, I was pleasantly surprised when it also turned out to be a really great red. It's got the spiciness of a Shiraz and a good bit of dry-ness to it. We enjoyed it with a spicy turkey stew and it was a great complement to the meal. I would certainly recommend this wine to any fan of reds.
