90 Points Robert Parker
The dense ruby/purple-colored 2002 Shiraz Eight Uncles exhibits a big, fat, unctuous, full-bodied style with copious quantities of licorice-infused blackberry fruit, low acidity, and a spicy, heady finish. It is meant to be drunk young to take full advantage of its exuberance/flamboyance, so consumption over the next 2-5 years is suggested.

Slippery fine tannins, plenty of vanilla oak with some dried herbs and a slighly spicy edge. It's big and ripe but not over the top. Not bad at all. Drink Now
