MAN consistently produces well-made, value-orientated wines and this one’s no exception. Dark berries, purple florals and mocha notes all abound in the bouquet. The mouthfeel is full but not fat, with medium acidity that keeps the fruit core center stage. Drink now.——L.B.(8/1/2011)—— 86

Smoke and roobios tea dominate the bouquet, with accents of raspberry and cocoa. The mouth is more of the same with soft notes of black plum guts and berry preserves fleshing it out. The texture is like crushed velvet with assertive tannins and structured acidity. Drinkable now, though could age for another year or two.——L.B.(9/1/2010)—— 89

A luscious, savory character is the backbone of this Shiraz—spicy red fruit and a touch of vanilla oak on the nose lead it. The flavors of balsamic vinegar, black pepper and plum add to the sexy style of the wine. ——S.K.(12/15/2008)—— 89
