2004 Stella's Garden Shiraz, McLaren Vale, Australia

[wondersofwine]

Produced by Sarah and Sparky Marquis.
16.5% alcohol
(Label has a dog wearing eyeglasses)
Dense, very dark purple color. Juicy, fruity, jammy, big and fun to drink. Blackberries, currants, with a lingering finish. Oak not too prominent on the palate which to me is a favorable comment.
Could be fun at a backyard barbeque if you don't have to get behind the wheel afterwards.
Welcome back Sarah and Sparky.

Good note. I'm wearing a t-shirt with that label on it right now.

I'm not sure of how much involvement Sarah and Sparky have in this wine. I believe, but could certainly be wrong, they are consultants on this wine. I'll ask them this year when I see them.
