The deep ruby/purple-colored 2001 Shiraz Frux Frugis exhibits a lovely nose of chocolate intermixed with cassis, black cherries, pepper, and a hint of vanilla from American oak (a prominent component in the flavors). Medium to full-bodied, supple-textured, and well-balanced, this seductive effort will drink well for 3-4 years.

Rich, dark chocolate and blackberry fruit; silky but powerful palate; a ripple of sweet fruit through the back palate and long finish. Lovely wine. Drink to 2016.

Won't attempt to wax lyrical on this one, short and sweet will do just fine. Deliciously ripe blueberries, plus blackcurrant, quality dark chocolate, and pepper. Big and bold, nicely balanced and good length. Highly recommended. Drink in the next 1 to 5 years
