Winery - The Old Faithful

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Starts off with intriguing aromas of coffee, clove and plum that segue into dark, warming flavors. It’s full bodied, lush and almost creamy in texture, with supple tannins that only hint at their presence before fading into a long, licorice-tinged finish. Best now–2013.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A relative bargain amid top-quality McLaren Vale Shiraz, the 2005 Top of the Hill Shiraz is beginning to show some softening and signs of maturity, yet remains intensely perfumed and flavored. Coffee bean and black olive notes start it off, backed by enough fruit richness to give it an expansive mouthfeel and long finish. Drink now–2015.
