winemaker's notes:

Number 71 on the Wine.com 100 of 2007!

"Our vineyard is in the coolest part of McLaren Vale, giving our low yields time to slowly accumulate concentrated powerful flavors of blackberry and plums, with hints of spice. The open fermenters and wild yeast allow maximum extraction and complexity with soft silky tannins."
-Peter Fraser, Winemaker

  Not your ordinary Shiraz - 8/2/2008
I would buy this wine again
Dark red, rich wine, not simple, round mouthfeel, definitely to pair with meals with fat. Great value at the $20 price point. Should cellar nicely.

I would buy this wine again
I've ordered this wine several times and you won't be disappointed for a modest $16. It has the ability to compliment any carnivorous meal or is fantastic solo. Tannins are light but for the most part it's bright and balanced. Decent finish. Try it.

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.
Green wine
