The purple-colored 2006 Shiraz was aged in American oak hogsheads for 12 months. The alluring nose reveals wood smoke, spice box, leather, game, and blueberry. On the palate the fruit has a wild berry, slightly exotic character, excellent depth, and an overall sexy personality. Although it should certainly drink well for 8-10 years, this great value in Shiraz can be enjoyed now.Importer: Jane Delaney, The Ravensvale Group, Naples, FL; tel. (800) 580-0052
