- A warm-climate, hot vintage Barossa Shiraz-Viognier from minuscule yields. A profound, luxurious wine with lashings of sweet plum, black olive and blackberry fruit backed by ample soft tannins. Now to 2013.

- ($85) Full red-ruby color. Fragrant, wild and exotic, with distinctive viognier-scented aromas of apricot and peach blossom over spicy white pepper, cassis and raspberry. Silky, velvety and long, bursting with briary black fruits. Its sumptuous and fleshy mid-palate culminates in a lingering, savory, earthy finish of concentration and balance.
