CLARENDON HILLS ASTRALIS SHIRAZ 1999

McLaren Vale.

Amazingly rich and seductive, a towering wine with layers and layers of rich blackberry, plum, cherry and sweet spice flavors that cascade across a dense structure, polished to a fare-thee-well so the flavors ring, unopposed by tannins; the tannins are present, but totally submerged in the flavors. The kind of wine you want to roll around in. 93 WA 95 WS

Realised: $480
