Just curious if anyone has tried this winery?
I recently bought a 6 pack of 2004 'Epicurus' Shiraz and was wondering if anyone had good or bad reports.

I frequent the Barossa a couple of times a year and I've never heard of them either. $60/bottle straight from the winery. Much much less on various discount sites. Winery might be in trouble???

Well I bit the bullet and opened one last night to accompany a Roast Beef.
Decanted through a Venturi and a filter, washed the bottle out and decanted back through the Venturi and a filter.
Poured two glasses and left for an hour or so.
I tried it straight after corking, strong alcohol taste.
After sitting in the glass a different beast.
Deep rich flavours, deep crimson colour, very smooth and long taste afterwards.
I'm not so worried anymore
