Whilst the picture says shiraz vine, it certainly doesn't look to be nearing the ton.
It may be a Durif vine, 2008 being the centenary of its introduction to Rutherglen.

Umm
Can we stick to wine discussion perhaps, or in this case, quiz answering?
As ever here on auswine we stay away from swapping personal insults and so on.
Its all about the wine, as they say, or in this case, the wine quiz.
