Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Plummy, savory fruit is accented by dusty oak in this wine from Shingleback winemaker John Davey. The tannins are supple and the acids tart, yielding a crisp finish framed by vanilla. Drink now–2015.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Another label from Shingleback winemaker John Davey, this vintage of The Gate delivers a well-structured, tasty wine full of black and white pepper, plum and blackberry flavors. The nose shows milk chocolate, black berry and cherry aromas. Very enjoyable; one to drink over the next 3 years. Imported by Precept Brands.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Berry aromas on the nose are sweet and verge on overripe. The mouthfeel is soft, with flavors of mixed berries and wheat on the palate. The finish has nutmeg, herb and heaps of oak and toffee.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
An enjoyable Shiraz to drink now: Cream, vanilla and sweet fruit on the nose, with a standard earth-plum-oak formula on the palate. Has a little herbal bitterness on the finish, but very good overall.
