The 2006 Annie's Lane shiraz exhibits plums, cherries and spice on the nose, while hints of char and spearmint are interwoven into the   palate.  The wine is medium to full bodied with lifted fresh fruits   supported by integrated oak.  The tannins are soft and very fine.   Enjoy now or cellar for 5 to 7 years.                                  

Deep, dark red in colour, the nose offers rich blackberry and prune   fruit notes supported by subtle vanilla and cedar accents.  A  full-bodied Shiraz in the mouth with rich black fruits backed by     nuances of espresso with subtle tannins and a lingering length of finish.  best now until 2012.                      

“The Bremerview vineyard is situated on the rich, alluvial floodplains of Langhorne Creek. The 2005 harvest had given us fruit which is jampacked with flavours of blackberries, ripe plums and fragrant spices and, combined with toasty oak characters resulting from 15 months maturation in American oak. This is a wine to be enjoyed now or cellared until 2012 when the wine will develop smooth earthy and chocolaty characters.”

“The whole package! Lovely complexity on the nose - smells like leather and licorice. Smooth palate entry, with soft, sweet fruit flavours along the entire length, balanced by tannins and acid.4 1/2 stars.”

Winestate, May/June 2008

"Lifted pepper and spice aromas.  Quite fruity.  Elegant, warm, silky palate. Nice, textured palate with some good, grainy tannins.  Very  good with the food.  The good, firm tannins stood up well with the  dish."

The 2003 E & E Black Pepper Shiraz recently scored an impressive 94 points in the renowned wine magazine 'Wine Spectator'.  Named as one of the world's finest reds and described by Wine Spectator's editor Mr Harvey Steiman as "A gorgeous mouthful of cherry, blackberry and floral flavours lingering on the finish...  the wine has a keen sense of balance, grace and harmony." This wine is now rated alongside such greats as Penfolds Grange and Chateau Margaux.     

"The 2004 shiraz "Command" comes from a single block of 104 year old vines. It was aged in 100 per cent new oak puncheons (400 litre barrels). Opaque purple coloured, this shiraz has fabulous aromatic of smoke, melted tar, licorice, espresso, game and blueberry compote. Layered but tight, this full-bodied wine is thick, rich and totally hedonistic. The finish lasts for 60 seconds. However, be warned. This monumental shiraz needs 10-15 years to fully unfold. It will provide pleasure through 2035."
