Dark crimson and some sweetness on the nose. Some real savour but a little bit of sweetness too. Not quite as transparent as I’d love. Just a bit ‘thick’. (JR)

Score 90/100 · Drink 2014-2018, Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, Apr 2014
Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, the 2012 Shiraz is loaded with aromas of crushed blackberries, black cherries and mulberries with suggestions of black pepper, lavender and bay leaf. The medium-bodied frame has a good core of vibrant black and red berry flavors structured by medium levels of rounded tannins. Balanced acid lends freshness through the medium to long finish. Drink it now to 2018+. Imported by Martin Scott Wines, Lake Success, NY; www.martinscottwines.com
