Deep garnet-brick in color, the 2005 Shiraz Oracle offers spiced notes with dried berries, mocha, espresso and licorice. This big, rich and full-bodied red is spicy and plush, has medium levels of soft tannins and just enough acid freshness. It finishes long. Drink it now to 2019+.

Renowned for powerful, richly fruited Shiraz, most famously from the Barossa Valley, alongside age-worthy Cabernet and cool-climate whites. A warm climate and old, ungrafted vines produce wines of generosity and depth.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
