Burge Family 'Olive Hill' Shiraz-Grenache 2001

94pts - Jeremy Oliver

93pts - Robert Parker - 'The Wine Advocate'

"The 2001 Grenache/Shiraz/Mourvedre Olive Hill (31%, 41% and 28% respectively) is aged completely in French oak, of which about 30% is new. A super effort, it boasts a dense ruby/purple color as well as a fragrant bouquet of cigar box intermixed with blackberries, currants, spice, pepper, & a touch of vanilla. Well-delineated & pure, with a sweet, expansive mid-palate, & a long, concentrated, full-bodied finish, it will last for a decade or more." - The Wine Advocate
