Craiglee Shiraz 2014 Victoria Sunbury
Craiglee Shiraz 2014 Victoria SunburyViolet, black pepper, blackberry, meat and spice, almost into liquorice. Full bodied, tobacco and savoury stuff, perhaps a touch clunky right now, but brighter feel in the mouth with raspberry and spices, and good long finish.

Tasted: Nov 17; Alcohol: 13.5%; Price: $70.00; Closure: Screwcap; Drink: 2022-2038; Rated: 95 Points; Gary Walsh; The Wine Front

Closure: Screwcap; Drink: Now to 25 years; Ranked #1 of 40 2014 Shiraz from Port Phillip; Rating: 96 Points & Wine of the Week; Huon Hooke; The Real Review
