Australian Shiraz

Okay, I'm hooked on Aussie Shiraz.... pure and simple. First off, I'm not completely sold on the idea that these are not subtle wines.... yeah, lots of fruit bombs in here, but some are very complex and even get better a day or two after bottle opening (if you can wait that long). Some of my recent favorites are the 2007 Mollydooker Boxer, the 2006 3 Rings Barossa, and The 2006 Revolution. And the prices... well, hard to beat for the wine value. If you're looking for great, fruit forward, bold and expressive Shiraz.... take a trip to the Australian section of your favorite wine store and buy 'em up.
