Aromas are of roasted meat and tobacco. It’s just an excellent wine, the oak overlay giving just enough flavor and patina to deep, liquerish blackberry flavors. “Cigar box” is a descriptor I don’t get to use often when talking about Oz wine, but it’s appropriate here. Finishes long. Give the wood a little more time to integrate, then enjoy. Drink 2007–2013. Imported by Freixenet USA. ——D.T.(10/1/2005)—— 91
