A good buy

This review is for the 2008 vintage

"Vibrant" would be going a bit far for me, however a good example of Aussie Shiraz, decent flavour on the tongue, good with food and not bad at all on it`s own.

This review is for the 2009 vintage

Just tasted for the first time and Mad Bay hit the spot. Just checked the wine rack and it's my only bottle :-(, it must have arrived in as a mixed case. I'll now order a case to see in 2013. Delicious and as described.

This review is for the 2008 vintage

This is a good value wine especially when buying by the case, good for drinking now and may even keep for a couple of years, needs to be room temperature and preferably given time to breathe
