This wine has won a heap of medals and gongs and I had to try it. I am not a great fan of cool climate shiraz but this wine won me over. It is not cheap and compared to the Seppelt wine recently reviewed by GW one would have to question that many $$$. But, it had gorgeous fine tannins that gave it delicious texture. The fruit and its cracked pepper were in perfect harmony with nice spicy oak. The palate rolled around for some time. I am very cynical of wines with great show success and after all the hoo ha between the Aussie wine Mafia and Parker et al just before this wine got all its awards I was ready to be underwhelmed. But no, its a ripper. Well done Lindsay.
