Eden Valley fruit is rarely left to stand on its own, often lending a bit of spice to larger Barossa blends, but this is a single-vineyard bottling from former viticulture teacher Trevor March. It’s savory and supple, with a slightly meaty character, vanilla and spice notes all wrapped around a core of lush raspberry fruit. Drink now–2012.——J.C.(11/1/2007)—— 89

The outstanding, elegant, perfumed 2002 Shiraz tastes like a cool-climate Shiraz, offering notes of asphalt, cola, black currants, blackberries, and earth. This full-bodied, rich, well-delineated, impressively endowed 2002 can be drunk now or cellared for 5-7 years.Importer: Kysela Pere et Fils, Winchester, VA; tel (540) 722-9228
