Score 95/100 · Drink 2015-2030, Jay S Miller, Wine Advocate, Oct 2007

The 2005 Syrah Onkaparinga delivers scents of toasty oak, crushed rock, pencil lead, game, bacon, and blueberry. Voluptuous but impeccably balanced, it has enough structure to evolve for 8-10 years and should drink well through 2030. Importer: E. & J. Gallo Winery, Modesto, CA; www.clarendonhills.com.au
