WA 93 points: The 2005 Shiraz-Roussanne is has a lovely bouquet of toasty oak, spice box, floral notes, violets, pepper, blueberry, and blackberry liqueur. The flavors are already offering complexity and the wine’s structure is well-integrated. Layer and opulent, it will benefit from 6-8 years in the bottle and drink well through 2025. Domenic Torzi is the man behind these wines. He believes in non-interventionist winemaking including, among other things, wild yeast fermentations, no acid additions, and bottling without fining and filtration.
