Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, the 2009 Mungo Park Shiraz offers expressive ripe red plum, mulberry and warm cherry aromas with suggestions of allspice, underbrush and lavender. Full bodied with a good concentration of warm berry and earthy flavors, it has refreshing acidity and a medium to firm level of velvety tannins, finishing long. Drink it now to 2018+. The Colonial Estate does not currently have a USA importer.

Smooth and round, with a roasted red pepper edge to the dark berry and licorice flavors that persist impulsively on the long, meaty finish. A tart balance makes this feel lively and should carry it well in the cellar. Drink now through 2016. 500 cases made, 300 cases imported.??–HS??Region: Australia / Barossa / Barossa Valley Select to Add

The purple-colored 2006 Mungo Park Shiraz was sourced from 120-year-old vines. The nose reveals wood smoke, game, lavender, and intense blueberries that jump from the glass. Made in an elegant style, this tasty Shiraz is smooth-textured, concentrated, and impeccably balanced. It will offer a drinking window from 2012 to 2025. The Colonial Estate is the Australian project of Englishman and Bordeaux chateau owner Jonathan Maltus. His first vintage in Australia was 2002. The entry level wines are line-priced at $30 offering excellent bang for the buck.Importer: Single Vineyard Imports, www.maltus.com
