Score 96/100 · Drink 2006-2021, Robert Parker, Oct 2006
This is a new project between winemakers Chris Ringland and Trevor Jones, and innovative importer Dan Philips. There are 350 cases of this 100% Shiraz produced from a single vineyard planted in 1960, and aged completely in new French oak for 30 months. The beautiful 2002 Shiraz boasts a gorgeous perfume of acacia flowers, blackberry liqueur, melted licorice, espresso roast, and a hint of white chocolate. Full-bodied, dense, and profoundly concentrated, with stunning layers of flavor as well as magnificent length, this wine should evolve and drink well for 12-15 years. Importer: Dan Philips, The Grateful Palate, Oxnard, CA; tel. (888) 472-5283
