Deep ruby. Powerful raspberry and cassis on the nose, with exotic Asian spice and floral oil accents. Liqueur-like dark berry flavors are impressively poised on a silky, midweight frame, with gentle tannins building on the back. Takes a turn to bitter cherry on the long, juicy finish, with the sexy spice notes repeating.

Score 92/100 · Drink 2006-2012, Robert Parker, Oct 2006

The 2005 GSM Stonehorse (63% Grenache, 27% Shiraz, and 10% Mourvedre) exhibits a deep ruby/purple color as well as pure cassis, sweet black cherry, and raspberry notes, medium to full body, a restrained and elegant style, and fewer Provencal-like flavors. Drink this long, ripe, rich, impressive 2005 over the next 5-6 years. Importer: Ben Hammerschlag, Epicurean Wines, Seattle, WA; tel. (206) 923-1376

A good value in old vine Barossa Shiraz, the inky/ruby/purple-hued 2005 Shiraz Stonehorse (100% Shiraz from 15- to 45-year-old vines aged in used oak for 15 months) exhibits an explosive nose of sweet black cherries, cassis, tar, spice box, and licorice. This full-bodied, sexy, up-front effort is impossible to resist. Enjoy it over the next 4-5 years. Oct 2006, www.robertparker.com
