winemaker's notes:

Number 27 on the Wine.com 100 of 2007!

53% Shiraz, 37% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot

Pillar Box red is an opaque red/black color with a scarlet rim. It displays aromas of sweet, ripe red berries underpinned cinnamon spice and dark chocolate. The palate is rich and fleshy with vibrant raspberry & blackcurrant fruit intertwined with a citrus like cedary oak complexity. The tannins are full yet soft and supple, combined with the gentle acidity to produce a lingering harmonious finish.

"An unbelievable value, it boasts a dense ruby/purple color as well as an uplifted, projected nose of sweet red and black fruits, earth, and spice box. Supple-textured with a voluptuous mouthfeel and unbelievable richness, this wine clearly over-delivers. Enjoy it over the next 2-3 years."

A 90pt Wine for $10, are you kidding me. I can suck this down like H20!!!
rating (9/26/2010):
Beautiful deep color, great nose. Black cherry, currants, and a long burnt toast finish.
A Customer - Florida
This is one of the best reds for the price that I have tried. Love the screw top and it does not detract from the taste.
