Mitolo Shiraz 'Reiver' 2001 750ml
| The perfumed, exceptionally elegant, medium-bodied, dark ruby/purple-colored 2001 Shiraz Reiver possesses good purity, decent acidity, and a restrained, graceful personality that offers delicious drinking now and over the next 7-8 years.--Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate, August 2003.
Blackberry, redcurrant and sweet leather aromas are followed by a palate with the complex structure which has already established itself as part of the Mitolo house style. Savoury black fruits are balanced by fine, long tannins, and quality French oak. --James Halliday's Australian Wine Companion, 2004 edition. | |
