95 RP. "The 1999 Block 6 boasts layers of concentration, huge body, and massively extracted blackberry and cassis fruit intermixed with leather, animal fur, and licorice. There is a lot going on in this blockbuster, broodingly backward, yet super-concentrated Shiraz. It represents the best of McLaren Vale in a very traditional sense." Wine Advocate #143, Oct 2002 |
