  OUTSTANDING ! - 8/24/2009
I would buy this wine again
This is one of the most uniquely tasting full bodied wines I've ever tried among hundreds. I personally believe it's underrated. Tannins so rich it'll turn your tongue and teeth purple, so maybe not the best first date wine. This wine will impress one who truly appreciates wine without a doubt .

  Very smooth - 4/18/2009
I would buy this wine again
I tried this while away on business recently and really enjoyed it. It was velvety and smooth; berry and spicey.

  Not The Best Shiraz - 2/18/2009
I would not buy this wine again
Tried this wine at Bel and The Dragon in Windsor, UK and was not impressed. To date, it is my least favorite Shiraz. However, I do not prefer dry/bitter after taste.

My least favorite Shiraz. Not sure if it's the vintage or if it's usual with this vineyard, but it was bitter like grape skins.

It was a very good wine. I had a sirloin steak with my wine and a cheese platter. It went well with both of them. I highly recommend this wine

  A Delicious Aussie Shiraz - 5/5/2008
4 of 5 people found this review helpful
 I would buy this wine again
Just lush in general. This Shiraz would definately benefit from an additional 2-3 years of cellaring. After first taste I let it decanter for a little over an hour. Make sure you do the same as the wine completely opens up. On the nose I got some oak, clove and black cherry. On the palette it tasted mostly of plum and had such a nice jammy texture. Legs were pretty firm. I have got to say I just loved this wine. Get yourself a bottle. PS. Don't buy on a date. Definately stains your teeth!

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.
Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
