winemaker's notes:

This wine is a full cherry red in colour with purple hues. The nose displays generous floral notes from Viognier, combined with dark fruits, black cherries and red spices of the Shiraz. The palate is silky smooth, soft and supple, yet complex. Exotic spices, musk, dark chocolate and cherry flavours combine with soft layered tannins, producing a stylish wine.
"
"The outstanding 2004 Shiraz/Viognier (95% and 5% respectively) offers an exotic, flamboyant nose of blackberries and flowers along with wonderful intensity, richness, fruit, and glycerin. Enjoy it over the next 3-4 years." - The Wine Advocate"

I would buy this wine again

I have never had a wine mixed with a Viognier before and was happily surprised. The bouquet is divine, full of a flowers. The wine is soft and smooth and a perfect combination of tannin and oak. Buy this wine! The price is terrific.

I gave this wine to my father for Christmas 2006. He told me he thought it was "splendid."

A Customer - Illinois, USA
We received this wine as a gift. It is a very tasty wine, clear deep red in color with a long finish and slight tannins. Nice w/broiled game birds, stronger flavors. Will purchase in the future ...

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.

Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
