On the reccomendation of my good friend Josh I put some of these in my basket. This blend(?) is almost opaque. Black, black stuff dominates the nose and comes thru on the palate. Pure fruit driven, this bad boy needs some time to become civilized( Kinda' like Botofugo) Good balance between the tannins and acidity and little oak, this Buds Fer You Drew. Should really develop.

WW,
I want you toget these in your basket: Look for Irvine Merlot, and Craneford Shiraz, both from Austraila. Let me know if you can't get them there. CCK
(PS- L=fine, as long as it does not rain)

It's JOCK!!!!!

You're welcome anyway. Torbreck is one of Australia's best producers. Also keep your eye out for Summerfield. [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/smile.gif[/img]

P. S. The blend is Grenache Shiraz and Mouvedre. Not sure of the exact proportions.
