Like the Viognier and Riesling, the 2005 Shiraz Gumpr’s is an excellent value. This 100% Shiraz exhibits a deep ruby/purple color as well as a sweet bouquet of blackberries, toasty oak, charcoal, and pepper. Earthy, dense, round, supple, and silky textured, it can be enjoyed over the next 3-4 years. Importer: Jane Delaney, The Ravensvale Group, Greenwich, CT; tel. (800) 580-0052

Full-bodied and lushly textured, this is a bold, lusty Shiraz that has been heavily dosed with oak, yet features fruit intensity to match. Toasted coconut and vanilla notes frame the nose, picking up hints of smoke and leather, but the fruit pours through on the palate, adding flavors of crushed blueberries. Has enough structure to suggesting aging another few years, although tannin pigs may want to slurp it down now.——J.C.(6/1/2007)—— 91
