Score 90/100 · Josh Raynolds, Sep 2005
Deep, violet-ruby. Very fresh blackberry and cassis on the nose, with a tangy note of pepper. Spicy and primal in the mouth, showing youthful black fruit flavors and a note of sweet fruitcake. It's nice to see such fully expressive fruit at under 15% alcohol. Finishes with persistent blackcurrant flavor and fine, silky tannins.

About the producer
Clonakilla
The Kirk family’s winery was one of the first to put Murrumbateman Shiraz on the fine wine map. Founded in 1971, Clonakilla pioneered this cool-climate region and today the estate produces some of the finest Shiraz in Australia and the world, inspired by the styles of the Northern Rhône.
