The 2003 Shiraz/Cabernet Bernoota (60% Shiraz and 40% Cabernet) reveals a denser, more opaque purple color in addition to plenty of road tar, blackberry, and currant notes, supple tannin, and a fleshy, fruit-driven mouthfeel. Drink this lovely Australian red over the next 3-4 years. Importer: George Galey, American Estates Wines, Summit, NJ; tel. (908) 273-5060

The slightly herbaceous, peppery, medium-bodied 2001 Bernoota is an attractive blend of 60% Shiraz and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon. Notes of American oak are noticeable in this chunky, spicy 2001. It will drink well for 3-4 years. American Estates Wines, Inc., Summit, NJ; tel. (908) 273-5060
