2002 Limestone Coast Shiraz

Wine Spectator (April 30, 2005)
"Smart Buys / Best Values. Golfer Greg Norman hits a hole in one with this generous blueberry-and smoke-flavored red. It reveals an elegant side of Aussie Shiraz...Bright, lively and generous with its distinctively blueberry, plum and smoky aromas and flavors. Lingers with unexpected elegance and hints of sweet spice on the finish."

Quarterly Review of Wines (Winter 2004 - Winter 2005)
"This Shiraz is the best of the Greg Norman offerings, and its price is what most people want to pay. It is from a very fine vintage. Slightly sweet American oak nose, with spice and cinnamon and mild tannins. Finely structured. Rich chocolate, blackberry, plum and spice make this a delicious wine."

"Rich, delicate aromas of black cherry, cherry and spice. Similar flavors with soft mouthfeel and long finish. More elegant than many other Shirazes." - Dick Rosano
