93 Points Robert Parker
A wine of great intensity as well as full-bodied unctuosity, the 2001 Shiraz Lily's Garden (1,500 cases) reveals sweet, jammy blackberry and cherry fruit infused with notions of new saddle leather, meat, chocolate, and dried herbs. Enormous in the mouth, but incredibly well-balanced, it was aged for 11 months in 100% new American oak.

91 Points James Halliday
Medium to full red-purple; the clean and ripe spice, plum and black chocolate aromas of the bouquet lead into a lush, juicy palate which does not, however, go over the top; nice wine. Sourced from McLaren Vale. Drink to 2015.
