The 2006 Dry Land Shiraz was also raised for 24 months in 50% new French oak. Deep crimson in color, it delivers a superb bouquet of smoke, game, bacon, espresso and blueberry. This leads to a full-bodied, plush wine with layers of succulent fruit, savory, ripe flavors, outstanding integration of all components, and a lengthy, pure finish. Drink this hedonistic effort over the next eight years. Reilly’s entry level wines are labeled “Barking Mad” and generally offer excellent value. All of the wines noted below in italics are worth a try.Importer: Southern Starz, Huntington Beach, CA; tel. (714) 892-3030
