Have a few more of these squirreled away, but opened for an old friend who used to buy a ton of Hewitson wines from me — this was nearly flawless, just a stunning presentation, best it’s shown — ever.

Wow, still going strong - the ripe fruit (black/blue) concentration in this wine is off the charts without being jammy or flabby - might be one of the most generous Shiraz ever from AUS
