2002 Black Rod Shiraz |
||
|
Black Rod raps on the door of the House of Representatives at the opening of parliament to announce the governor general’s presence in the Senate. He fancies a drop of Shiraz, too. The 2002 vintage Shiraz, from Blocks 1 and 2, is complex and dense with a wonderfully long palate. Vanillan oak, traces of mint, olives, sweet ripe berries, smooth tannins, the Black Rod shows what Granite Belt Shiraz can do. It has that Mmm... quality. In good cellar conditions this wine will continue to improve for at least six years. Food: lamb, oxtail, strong cheese. Heck, who needs food! |
