Score 97/100 · Drink 2016-2032, Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, Jun 2015
The 2012 Shiraz Gregor is made from 100% Shiraz in the Amarone style where grapes are picked and laid out to dry before fermenting. It sees 24 months maturation in new French oak puncheons and a 1,350-liter vat. Deep purple-black colored, it is profoundly scented of crème de cassis, blackberry pie and blueberry preserves with suggestions of chocolate box, menthol, sandalwood and prunes plus a waft of clove-studded smoked ham. Full-bodied, rich and oh-so-decadent, it fills the palate with spicy black fruit preserves flavors framed by firm, grainy tannins and just enough freshness, finishing long.
