This is what is written about this wine.
"George Shinas, a criminal judge in Victoria Australia, makes only one wine, a single vineyard Shiraz from vines that were first planted in 1898. A beautifully scented nose of acacia flowers, black fruits, and spicy new oak, its full bodied with excellent ripeness, loads of flavor from mid-palate to end, and a very long, impressive finish with plenty of black cherry and cassis. The available qunatities of this wine are so small, its a crime. Extremely limited."

Alas,imho,it's just another Oz clone of blackberry/blueberry, oak and high alcohol, 15.2%. $20. Not recommended.
