Chateau Reynella Shiraz 2005 Wine Review

Natalie's Score: 92/100

Vintages Wine Panel: A great deal of care goes into crafting this deep and smoky Shiraz. The fruit is selected from individual lots of premium McLaren Vale vineyards before they are gently pressed using the traditional, hand-operated basket press. The juice is fermented in small open-top fermenters and the final wine is then aged for 18 months in both French and American oak. Brimming with dark berry aromas as well as notes of tobacco and spice, this is a plump and rich red. My note: Big, brooding red with black fruit notes and a smokey backbone.

Shiraz food pairings: rare prime rib.
