This sophisticated, mighty red is from one of the most celebrated of unions in the wine world. When Lucy Croser, daughter of Australian wine legend Brian Croser married Xavier Bizot of the Bollinger Champagne house, two powerhouse wine families from opposite sides of the world are now entwined by marriage. Scores of 97, 96 and 94pts are testament to the quality of this, their concentrated Wrattonbully Cab Shiraz. "Intensity of flavour is very good. A terrific release that will cellar like an absolute charm.” Campbell Mattinson, The Halliday Wine Companion. “Bright red fruit notes on the nose with a palate of power and elegance in which the fine chalky tannins work seamlessly. Very long controlled palate…” Ray Jordan.
For John Lehmann in The Australian it is: "Proof of how happy some marriages can make us all feel, the cab-shiraz blend delivers aromas that are almost floral and perfumed, and a palate that’s generous with rounded, powdery tannins. The shiraz brings a juicy fruit sweetness to go with the cab sav’s aniseed and dark chocolate. Just so approachable and a real crowd pleaser, now and in years to come." 14.5% alc.
