Title:   eRobertParker.com #173 - 2004 Hill of Content Grenache Shiraz
Comment: The 2004 Grenache – Shiraz was aged entirely in used oak. The aromatics are muted but with coaxing earthy kirsch and blue fruit scents emerge. More expressive on the palate, the wine is velvety-textured, seamless, and easy-going. Made in a forward style, it is a wine to drink over the next 3-4 years. It offers good value. 86pts

Title:   International Wine Cellar - 2005 Hill of Grenache Shiraz- 89 Points
Comment: Medium red. Expressive red berry and cola aromas are brightened by floral and mineral qualities. The creamy raspberry and blackberry flavors boast a velvety texture and are gently framed by fine-grained tannins. Exotic baking spices build on the persistent, juicy finish. Pretty seductive stuff-especially at this price. 89 Points
