96 points Robert Parker: "Aged in new and one-year-old American oak, and made in a completely different style, the 2005 Shiraz The Bogan (from 25- to 105-year-old vines) is a dense purple-colored effort displaying an exuberant nose of toast, blackberries, cassis, cherries, and damp earth. It is full-bodied and powerful with fabulous purity and texture as well as a blockbuster finish. This is a classic example of Barossa Shiraz at its finest. Enjoy it over the next 12-15 years." (10/06)

Hell of expensive, but worth it. The texture is like liquid velvet, and the fruit is balanced by a deep, wet earthiness. The best Shiraz I've tasted in a while

This is probably the best Shiraz I've had. Beautiful nose, with berry and mocha. Smooth long finish. I would highly recommend this one!

Wow. A stunning shiraz. Superbly orchestrated and balanced, with a 30 second or longer finish. Worth the saucy price.
