Jasper Hill - Georgia's Paddock Shiraz - 2005

Far lighter than previous vintages; a medium-bodied, elegant wine; red cherry, black cherry and spice intermingle with balanced oak; silky finish. 94 Points/Drink by 2020 - James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion The 2005 Shiraz “Georgia’s Paddock” was aged in 20% new French and American oak. Yields for the wine were a meager 1.5 tons per acre. It exhibits an enticing perfume of smoke, pencil lead, mineral, blueberry, and blackberry. Made in an elegant style, the wine has lots of spice, rich flavors, plenty of depth, and a long finish. Drink it over the next 10-12 years. 92 Points/Drink 2007-2019 - Jay Miller, The Wine Advocate
