Tasting note
The 2010 Magill Estate Shiraz is deep garnet-purple in color and shows ripe cassis, blackberry and plum preserve aromas highlighted by lifted notes of roses, chocolate box and a touch of cedar. Medium to full-bodied, it is packed with rich, concentrated and refined flavors and framed with medium-firm, grainy tannins through the long finish. It should go on and on for a long time. Drink it from 2014 to 2026+. Score - 94+. (Lisa Perrotti-Brown, MW, erobertparker.com, Feb. 2013)
The 2004 Shiraz Magil Estate delivers a splendid nose of smoke, pencil lead, violets, blueberry, and blakcberry.
Palate: Medium-bodied. Softened, chocolaty, mouth coating tannins. Finessed, stylish, polished (no doubt compliments of basket-press). Mouth watering acidity tempers an otherwise rich and full palate, a palate not shy of masses of fruits and barrel ferment artefact. Gently persuasive, finely layered, unabashed Shiraz.
