Description

The 1998 Shiraz Oracle, made from 40-year old vines, and aged in 60% American and 40% French oak, is an unfiltered, full-throttle, opaque purple-colored Shiraz possessing copious quantities of truffle, new saddle leather, pepper, and blackberry fruit aromas. As the wine sits in the glass, scents of overripe plums, cherries, and spice emerge from this heady, powerful, nicely-textured, plush Shiraz. Rich and robust, it should be consumed over the next 8-10 years. Parker-R 92 FIRST YEAR PRODUCED
