"The 2003 Shiraz l’Explorateur (5,000 cases produced) exhibits a dense ruby/purple color along with a big, rich bouquet of melted licorice, blackberry liqueur, pepper, and a hint of road tar. Ripe, full-bodied, supple-textured, and long . . . . Kudos to proprietor Jonathan Malthus for his work in the Barossa." Wine Advocate #155, Oct 2004 |
