BURGE FAMILY 2005 DRAYCOTT SHIRAZ

  

From Wine Advocate: The 2005 Draycott Shiraz also contains 5% Mourvedre. The Shiraz was sourced from a 45-year-old vineyard and the wine was aged in French oak, 35% new. Purple-colored, the nose reveals toasty oak, mineral, licorice, black raspberry, and blueberry. Medium-bodied and elegant, the wine offers layers of savory flavors, outstanding depth, and a long, smooth finish. The wine has enough stuffing to permit 5-7 years of further evolution in bottle but can be enjoyed now and over the next 12-15 years.
