About the Wine – 2002 Vintage

This rich, dark red wine has complex smells of zest and fruit, plums, berries and a sprinkle of dark chocolate with an enduring smooth completion.The amazing 2002 Shiraz Apricot Block (just 13-year-old vines) was delivered from fruit trimmed at 1.5 tons every acre of land. Its huge, peppery, botanical, blueberry, blackberry, pen ink, and vanillin-scented bundle is trailed by a wine with an anxious energy that is absolutely in keeping with the cool 2002 vintage. Solid, with incredible virtue of fruit, an astonishingly multi-layered, full-bodied sense of taste, and an inky completion with gigantic fixation, sweet tannin, and magnificent overall adjustment, this youthful, unevolved Shiraz should start to strut its stuff in 3-4 years, and keep going for two decades.
