"A barrel sample of the 2002 Shiraz Reserve (the blend was finished and the wine will be bottled in several months) appears to be spectacular. An inky black/purple color is accompanied by sumptuous aromas of scorched earth, melted licorice, camphor, blackberries, and cherry liqueur. Full-bodied, dense, and well-delineated. . ."
