winemaker's notes:
The color is black with magenta hues.
On the nose is a high impact bouquet of blue to
black fruits such as, blueberry,
blackberry and Satsuma plum. The
aromas are complex and laden with
vanilla, charcuterie, mocha and
subtle spices. The palate is concentrated and intense with a
lingering texture across the mid and
late palate. A firm structure with tight
but fine dry tannins married with
densely intertwined fruit and juicy
mid-palate fruit weight.

critical acclaim:
"Dense inky purple hue. Pretty scents of spice, maple and briary-tinged berry. Velvety black cherry fruit coats the palate with fine-combed tannins and superb backing acidity. Sweet cherry and berry impressions linger in the focused finish. "

The Wine News
" Somewhat precariously balanced at 15.7% alcohol, this may not turn out to be the most long-lived Shiraz, but it delicious for current consumption. The tannins are soft and creamy in texture, while the blueberry and blackberry fruit is intensely concentrated, tinged with nuances of vanilla, menthol and chocolate."

Wine Enthusiast
"Saturated ruby. Intensely floral, high-pitched aromas of black raspberry, mulberry, violet and rose, lifted by a pungent peppery quality. Spicy dark berry flavors gain flesh and sweetness with air, picking up a smoky mineral quality and a note of candied violet. Finishes juicy and very long, with berry skin and floral notes."

International Wine Cellar
"My favorite of the Garden Series is the 2007 Shiraz Lily's Garden from McLaren Vale. Purple-colored, it has an enticing perfume of balsam wood, lavender, incense, pepper, bacon, and blueberry. With excellent grip and balance, this smooth-textured, savory Shiraz will improve over the next 2-3 years and drink well through 2020."
