2004 Torbreck Run Rig Shiraz

Written By: Michael Zimberg on Friday, March 21, 2008

Drank blind. Inky, alcoholic and dark. I guess Sine Qua Non because it is obviously stylish. Someone else guesses Aussie Shiraz (right). Licorice, several flavors like jolly rancher candy (watermelon, grape), hard, slamming and hot, huge enormous almost cloying finish. Parker gave this 1000 points (actually, he gave it only 99, but felt like 100). Great sweet juice. Fans of huge wine will go nuts. Retail $200.
