2002 Bonesetter Shiraz

Fashioned from 36-year-old vines, the 2002 Shiraz The Bonesetter boasts extraordinary intensity, opulence, and flavor dimensions. This classic, full-throttle Barossa Shiraz is dominated by black fruits, smoke, barbecue spice, licorice, and acacia flower characteristics. More elegant and well-balanced than many in the anti-Australian wine crowd might acknowledge, this beauty should drink well for 10-12 years.
