The wines more than speak for themselves

the 2016 Bin 111A Shiraz is a blend of Clare (51%) and Barossa (49%) fruit from vineyards that have previously contributed to Grange

there is very good freshness and verve to the nicely delineated medium weight flavors that are also very dry and slightly austere

Maybe this just has the edge over the Meyney

and both sites have vines that range from 40 to 50 years in age

Artadi, Pagos Viejos other_regions The wines more than speakRuby red. Smoky raspberry and cherry aromas are complicated by minerals, lavender and rooty sassafras. Suave red and dark berry flavors are complicated and deepened by exotic spicecake and sweet licorice. Impressively integrated tannins add gentle support. Pulls off the trick of outstanding concentration with finesse and finishes with superb precision and length. While still young, this is lovely today. Josh Raynolds
