The opaque purple-colored 2002 Shiraz, which includes 5% Viognier, offers knock-out aromas of honeysuckle, blackberries, currants, and licorice, medium to full body, outstanding purity, and a full-throttle finish revealing plenty of sweet tannin. Still somewhat primary, 1-2 more years of cellaring will result in greater focus, and it should evolve for 10-12+ years.

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.
