Bought the WW C/B because it was in 375ml bottle and in screwcap. I wanted a half bottle wirh Screwcap because I needed a half bottle to pour 375ml of a full bottle in for the next day, or whenever.
It was very good but maybe a notch lower than the 02 WW. For $11 the half bottle, not bad QPR.(and I get to re-use the bottle.)

GB Filsell '02. Took a while to open up, as I expected but this is one very smooth, sumptuous Shiraz. Not in the normal very rich Barossa style but more elegant. Still has plenty of fruit, acid and mild oak. For $20, great QPR.

Second night for the Filsell:- This is soooooo moreish it did not take long to finish the half bottle. If you like a smooth, fruity, lightly tannined, mildly oaked and gentle acid Shiraz then this is for you.
Just a simply scrumptious mouthful of pure enjoyment. Buy some and enjoy it as I am.

Yep, this one really opens up with a full day's breathing. Full, complex and rich. Like a little Meshach, it'll last a long while yet and can only get (even) better. Barossan essence in a bottle :D The 2002 Meshach is bound to be an absolute stunner when it's released...
