The Lane, Adelaide Hills (Australia) Shiraz 2013

Sep 9, 2015

By Rich Cook

This is a great value in an Aussie Shiraz.  It shows minimal oak, a beautiful mix of deep berry fruit and savory meaty character.  It’s mild on the mint and white pepper, but has enough to let you know where it’s from. It’s long and leafy on the finish, with a pleasant tarry note adding interest. A nice value at this price, especially when you factor in what viticulturist Marty Edwards calls a "slippery" feel.  Delicious!
