Great wine in peak condition. Gobs of ripe berry fruit flavours with a medly of savoury and bottle developed characters. This is truly complex and very long. Still has reasonably firm tannins but they are smothered in sweet fruit. Fantastic wine!

A light, elegant style of Grange made with a blend of 90% Shiraz and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine has a deep ruby/purple color and a spicy, peppery nose with some new oak, black cherry, and blackberry flavors. The wine shows some dry tannin in the finish that may ultimately prove worrisome given the less-than-massive style of this vintage. Nevertheless, there is still a lot to like in this wine, which is very pure, ripe, and medium to full-bodied. Anticipated maturity: 2003-2016.
