Tasting Notes:

This is the inaugural release of Tatler's Reserve Shiraz, or as we call it the "Nonpariel" (without peer). Exeptional growing conditions and fruit from 2005 allowed us to release this beautiful reserve Shiraz. The "Nonpariel" will only be released when conditions and fruit are suitable. Deep ruby red in colour, with a nose and palate of ripe mulberry and blackberry with hints of vanilla and chocolate, balanced by savory tannins providing great structure and length. Drinking beautifully now but will repay careful cellaring.

"Medium red-purple; an elegant, medium-bodied wine, with fine black fruits
earth and silky but persistant tannins; a great expression of Hunter Shiraz."
James Halliday Australian Wine Companion 2008.
