As usually happens in life we sometimes have great surprises... this guy is a prime example of that..an increadable value coming out of the great down under. Dark plum acetone and spice to the nose. Slightly sweet plum dark fruit followed by licorice spice pepper to the palate. Nice mouthfeel but a bit watery on the back end. Velvety tannins and a med plus finish. A very enjoyable experience at an amazing value. — 7 years ago

A new favorite. Great tobacco and spice flavors play off the blackberry. Medium body, very low acid. — 7 years ago
Aged for 16 months in 25% new oak barrels, this wine displays all the right notes of that exposure and is not overblown. Only three barrels of this wine were made - some 60 barrels - and it hits 12.9% abv. It is praised as an elegant wine, the kind Pinot Noir lovers love to love. Medium dark, this medium weight wine shows a nose of cola, black tea, orange peel and spices. The palate is smooth and almost silky. The tannins are just enough and the acidity is perfect. Tart berries, tea notes and spice flavors all play in harmony. The wine is smooth without laying down, exciting without being boorish. — 7 years ago
Straight up good. Katey does a great job. Velvety finish. Balanced. 12.7% — 8 years ago
Not quite as smooth as the 09 vintage, but very very good. Softened with air and will get even better with some time in the cellar. — 8 years ago
Aromas of pear. Both crisp and rich on the palate. Get some green apple on the back end. — 9 years ago
Smoky/spicy nose. Just enough acidity to cut back the fruit. One of my favourite pinots so far. — 10 years ago
Lovely fruits to start and beautiful tannic and raspberry finish. — 10 years ago

One of the best white wines I have tasted. To bad this was the lasted vintage they made. — 12 years ago
A study and functional heavyweight - bramble on and on. Nice thick mouthfeel with enough articulate acid to be nuanced. Solid value at 13$...Kisela, of course — 7 years ago

Nice cherry bouquet. Very balanced and pleasant. Hold its taste for the whole barbecue dinner. Great value! 2010 — 10 years ago
I'm quite satisfied with this wine. The smooth combination of fresh fruit flavorers, enhanced by seasoned plums and a hint of passion fruit, help to create a wine that can be enjoyed at many different types of social gatherings. All in all I am suitably impressed with this Shiraz. — 10 years ago
