Rated 97 - The 2006 Shiraz 'Expatriate,' a barrel sample, appears to have even more potential than the 2005. A glass-coating, saturated purple in color, it has a super-expressive bouquet of pain grille, spice box, licorice, blueberry, and blackberry liqueur. Full-bodied, dense, and packed with fruit, it has tons of flavor, great balance, and a long, pure finish. Give it 8-10 years to unfold and drink it through 2036. - Corrina Rayment Expatriate 2006 750ml -
