Firm cherry and raspberry flavors have toasted spice shadings and a touch of cedar, tightening up on the finish, but leaving plenty of aromatics to linger. Drink now through 2030. 175 cases imported.??–MW??Region: Australia / New South Wales / Hunter Valley Select to Add

The 2015 Shiraz is plummy on the nose, with hints of dusty earth and anise that suggest ripe fruit. But on the palate, this medium-bodied wine is crisp and tart, even wiry in style, with acid bones that are a bit too apparent for the fruit and a firm, dusty finish. It might improve over the next few years, but I don't see this Shiraz being a long-term proposition.

The 2013 Shiraz from Hunter Valley is a medium-bodied wine with a firm, crisp structure. Cedar, cinnamon and vanilla notes from French oak add interest to the tart red currant and cranberry fruit. (The wine does add some darker, blueberry notes with aeration.) With its tight style, it would make a good foil for fatty cuts of red meat.

Soft and expressive, with eucalyptus-tinged blackberry flavors, lingering against nubby tannins and narrowing on the finish. Best after 2016. 250 cases imported.??–HS??Region: Australia Select to Add
