Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, the 2010 Georgia’s Paddock Shiraz has a pronounced nose of black cherries, creme de cassis, black pepper and loam with hints of coffee, anise and yeast extract. Medium to full-bodied and with a great concentration of spicy / peppery black fruit flavors, it has just enough acid and a medium to firm level of velvety tannins, finishing long. It’s a wonderfully elegant expression of this vineyard. Though approachable now, it should drink best 2014 to 2024+. Importer: Old Bridge Cellars, Napa, CA; www.oldbridgecellars.com

This earthy style offers dark berry and meaty flavors, finishing on a leathery note. Displays complexity and depth, but the flavor profile seems slightly out of whack. Drink now through 2016. 200 cases imported.??–HS??Region: Australia / Victoria / Heathcote Select to Add
