       Tasting Notes                                                                     Dr Ron Goergiou MW

              2003 Salet Shiraz  14.6% alc.

                  Black cherry red in colour with an intense nose of black fruits, licorice

           and spices: extremely ripe. On the palate, the wine 

          displays low to medium acidity and echoes the nose with black spice

           fruit showing beautiful integration with the intense coconut and

           vanilla characters of the American oak. The palate displays a seamless

           integration and a weighty velvetiness which is round and long.

           The key features here are a huge  explosion of upfront fruit, tremendous

           length and persistence. Although clearly a new world wine, the wine

           making displays old world Finesse  92/100.
