Claymore from Clare?

Post by Milwaukee Twin »

Any notes on their "Nirwana" and "Dark side of the Moon" Shiraz?

Thanks!

MT,

I think it is called Nirvana (like the grunge band from Seattle), not Nirwana. Not sure if this was a typo or not.

From memory Halliday gave the 2002 Nirvana Shiraz 95 points in his latest companion. Don't have his tasting notes on hand.

Mr Twin,

Passed by the cellar door several months ago and the 03 Nirvana was the pick of them. A couple made it into the cellar anyway. Sorry, have no real notes. 03 Dark Side wasn't as impressive.

cheers

Thanks for the notes Ric.Would have bought it if I don't know the OZ retail price. Over here it's going for US$30.
The label is very eye catching in a sinister way.
