Item#: 73101

SP9191 pts. - Wine Spectator - Apr 30, 2013
Focused and distinctive, brimming with mineral accents that weave tar, basalt and pepper accents through the dark berry flavors. This comes together seamlessly on the hard, shiny finish. Best from 2014 through 2018. 1,000 cases made.
ST8989 pts. - Stephen Tanzer’s International Wine Cellar - Jul/Aug 2012
Deep ruby. A perfumed bouquet combines blackberry, black cherry, cracked pepper and minerals. Juicy and tightly focused, with nicely defined dark fruit flavors and zesty acidity. Very bright and nervy, with good finishing cut and length.

Where It's From

Country / Australia

View more wines from Australia

When casual wine drinkers think of Australian wine, they probably think of the critter-laden labels of Yellow Tail and The Little Penguin, among others. And while large wine companies dominate the Australian list, there are also a great number of smaller producers creating highly-rated, award-winning wines.

The majority of Australian wine is produced in South Australia, with most of that (those “critter wines”) carrying a South Eastern Australia appellation. Subregions such as Barossa Valley, Coonawarra and McLaren Vale are home to smaller producers and higher quality wines. Victoria and New South Wales are also significant regions, and wines from Western Australia are reaching America in increasing numbers.

Though Shiraz is the grape most associated with Australia, they’ve also had great success with Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Riesling and Grenache.
