Orlando Lawsons Padtheway 1998 Shiraz
What can you say about a wine like this?
When I brought the glass to my nose I was overwhelmed by the mint but not just ordinary mint. I thought peppermint, but this may be misleading. Spearmint is more like it with eucalypt and good fruit. The sort of wine you can spend a long time on without even tasting it. A deep crimson, full bodied wine, with very good structure and length and lovely soft vanilla oak. Excellent
Hi Graham,
If it's not a rude question, how much might I expect to pay per bottle?
P.S.
2002 Lindemans Cawarra Shiraz-Cabernet
A humble wine, but at least it hasn't been cellared past its prime
Very funny,
Simm

I've seen Lawsons 98 advertised a few times at a little under $50 per bottle.
