This is a dense and chocolatey Shiraz from the historic Amery vineyard. Succulent raspberry and satsuma plum is underpinned by savory, dusty spice notes, peppercorn and warm pavement. Tannins are huge, austere and distinctly textured. They dominate for the moment, but there's a depth of flavor and overall structure here that suggests that patience will be rewarded. Drink 2026—2036. Christina Pickard

What Is Blind Tasting?

All tastings reported in the Buying Guide are performed blind. Typically, products are tasted in peer-group flights of from 5-8 samples. Reviewers may know general information about a flight to provide context—vintage, variety or appellation—but never the producer or retail price of any given selection. When possible, products considered flawed or uncustomary are retasted.
