Glen Eldon 2001 Dry Bore Shiraz Aug 04

This wine is due to be released in two or three months. An interesting nose of dry coffee beans, and subtle medicinal herbs. Tannins are deceptively smooth, the acid unobtrusive and balanced and well matched to the rich, ripe off-sweet, dark chocolate, plum, blackberry, mulberry and coffee flavours that surf over a sweet underlying layer of flavour that all finish with excellent persistence. Muscular in weight, the mouth feel is seductive and the complexity harmonious and well developed. A great value wine that is ready to drink now, it is rated as Highly Recommended with **** for value. This is a winery worth watching.
