Score 96/100 · Drink 2014, Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, Feb 2014
Deep garnet-brick in color and revealing a nose redolent of sandalwood, incense, Chinese five spice and soy, with hints of anise, fruit cake, prunes and figs, the 1999 Hillside Shiraz is drinking very well now and showing great poise in the mouth with expressive spice and dried berry flavors, medium level velvety tannins and a refreshing acid lift in the long finish. Drink now. My visit at Kay Brothers included tastings of back vintages of the Hillside Shiraz and the Block 6 Shiraz as a demonstration of how these very special wines can age.
