Hewitson Red Rhone Blend Barossa Valley Miss Harry 2005
External Review by Premium Wine & Spirits:
Bright red. Spicy raspberry and wild strawberry on the nose, with notes of gingerbread, pomegranate molasses and dried flowers. Silky, understated and cool, the red berry flavors nicely lifted by juicy acids and dusted by fine tannins. Finishes on a sweet raspberry note, deepening toward blackberry and cherry. A great value.

Silky, understated and cool, the red berry flavors nicely lifted by juicy acids and dusted by fine tannins. Finishes on a sweet raspberry note, deepening toward blackberry and cherry. A great value.
Smooth and generous, this is a lively mouthful of blackberry, black olive and sweet spice flavors, lingering enticingly on the polished, refined finish. Grenache, Shiraz and Mourvedre. Drink now through 2013.
Hewitson, a reliable winery producing distinctive wines, has fashioned two Cotes du Rhone-like Miss Harry. It is a blend of approximately 40% Grenache, 40% Shiraz, and 20% Mourvedre. Juicy, rich, longer, and intense, the 2005 Miss Harry possesses a deep ruby/purple color, black fruits, wonderful purity, and notions of licorice, flowers, pepper, and dried herbs. Drink it over the next 3-4 years.
