This review is for the 2011 vintage

We bought this wine because it was on offer. We like it, but it is a bit 'heavier' than our usual shiraz. We would buy again if it was on offer.

This review is for the 2010 vintage

...when I had my friends and neighbours round for a BBQ to celebrate my 65th. (I already knew the wine.) I heartily endorsed the official line about it being perfect with good friends and a BBQ when a lot of them asked me about it. They agreed with me.
