Tasting Notes

WA92

Impressive is the 1999 Shiraz Reserve, a 1,100-case cuvee aged 14 months in new American oak. The wine is a dense purple color, with a sweet, almost blackberry liqueur nose, and smoke, licorice, and oak in the background. Jammy and rich, with huge body, good purity, adequate acidity, and a long finish, this is an impressive, surprisingly large-scaled 1999. It should age well for 10-16 years.

JH92

Strong red-purple; the bouquet offers an abundance of sweet, ripe berry fruit, the palate ultra-typical of McLaren Vale, rich, with lots of chunky dark chocolate fruit in a big, thick frame.
