"The 2006 Pillar Box Red is 50% Shiraz, 42% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 8% Merlot aged in a mix of used French and American oak. Purple-colored, it offers an enticing, fruity nose including aromas of cassis, black cherry, black raspberry, and blueberry. Full-bodied, ripe, and layered with flavor, this wine totally over-delivers on my hedonist’s meter. Drink this awesome value over the next 2-3 years.

Pillar Box has a powerful pedigree; fruit sourced from Henry’s Drive and winemaking consultation from the renowned Chris Ringland."  Jay Miller, Robert Parker's  The Wine Advocate, Aug 2008.

"More substance than expected, with all three varieties (Shiraz/Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot) contributing to the outcome, and to the exceptional value. 15º alc. Rating 89 Drink 2011 $12 Date Tasted Aug 07." James Halliday's Australian Wine Companion.
