Hi All

This has appeared here for the princely sum of $35. I've never heard of this McLaren Vale producer. It weighs in at 15.5% alcohol and I I think it's an export only label. Sniff, sniff..what's that smell an overpriced Parkerised wine methinks.

Anyone here heard of this producer or tried this wine? I seem to remember some chatter a while back in a post about YellowTail.

Anyone have any TV's TN's or experience of this wine?

Thanks in advance

M

These hale from Central NSW, here is there web site:

No listing for the Drought Reserve, just a Reserve Shiraz from a drought year, no vintage given :-(

, but it is listed ath their US agent's site, well at least the label picture is, oddly via FTP.

They did a "drought drop" or something a few years back - something like Cabernet, Shiraz and Sauvignon Blanc.
