Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2009 “The Red Mullet” Shiraz, Tempranillo, Grenache, Merlot presents aromas of kirsch, red currant preserves and stewed rhubarb over hints of cinnamon stick, black tea and tobacco leaf. Nicely balanced with mouth-filling warm red berry and earthy flavors, it has a good backbone of lively acid and medium level chewy tannins, finishing with medium-long persitence. Drink it now through 2014. Importer: The Country Vintner, Ashland, VA; www.countryvintner.com.au

A blend of Shiraz, Tempranillo, Mourvedre and Grenache, 2008 The Red Mullet has an earthy nose of damp humus and underbrush over black cherry, stewed tea, tobacco and spice box. Very crisp, full bodied and juicy, it offers a medium level of grainy tannins and a long finish. Drinking now, it should keep fresh through 2013.
