2004 Piombo Red Heads Studio Select Shiraz

[Drew]

Seems to be a controversy concerning this wine. I've read where the grapes of this wine were destined for the '04 MP Integrity, which was not produced due to the Marquis Phillips break-up. I've also read where the same juice ended up in the '04 MP "9" Shiraz. If any of this is true, I fully understand the style and know first hand that these wines can be overwhelming and a bit much. You almost have to be in a certain mood to enjoy the style which, btw, is not one that is food friendly. All of the MP, Mollydooker, Mitolo, Piombo and a bunch of similar others are made in this style and while, if anyone knows me [img]http://wines.com/ubb/biggrin.gif[/img], I enjoy and crave these wines on occasion, I don't want a steady diet of them.
