90 Points Robert Parker
The 1999 Shiraz Magill Estate reveals complex aromatics of subtle oak, new saddle leather, blackberry jam, and smoke. Medium to full-bodied, with a measured, elegant, restrained personality, it tastes like a cool climate Shiraz with a European-like delicacy and elegance. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2015.

92 Points James Halliday
Medium red-purple; cedary/spicy/savoury aromas blossom into black cherry and plum flavours on the palate, supported by a greater level of tannins than is usual with this wine. Very good structure and length. Drink to 2014.
