- Dark, inky plum color. Spicy black fruit & earth aromas. Complex. Lithe & fresh palate with bramble, spice, plum & blackberry. Great acidity & taut structure belies high alcohol & full body. Oak is present but subtle on a long & integrated finish. Not your typical cheap Aussie shiraz. Quite good.

- I was hoping to find a cheep Boxer here but it was much more mellow. Not bad at all but nothing to blow your sox off. The lable talked of chocholate and fruit but I was left wanting on both....I was eating Chinese food with it....hmm.
