Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar (Issue #134, September/October 2007)
(St. Hallett Wines Shiraz Blackwell Barossa Valley) ($35) Deep ruby. Deep, smoky, oak-accented dark berry and cherry liqueur aromas are complemented by mocha and dried flowers. Sweet dark fruit flavors are overlaid by powerful oak spice, with supple tannins adding structure. Is there enough muscle to the fruit to win out over the oak?
