The 1996 Shiraz Reserve Wild Witch is produced from a 35-year old vineyard. Yields were a meager one ton of fruit per acre. The stunning nose reveals scents of freshly ground pepper intermixed with pain grille, blackberry and raspberry fruit. With awesome concentration, medium to full body, and zesty underlying tangy acidity, this complex yet firmly-structured, backward Shiraz needs 2-3 years of cellaring, after which it should unfold nicely for at least 15 years.
