Description

Levels IN, 4 labels damp stained, rest good appearance.

The 2005 Apricot Block Shiraz received the same upbringing as the Alice’s and is a similar glass-coating, opaque purple. An enticing perfume of cedar, scorched earth, pepper, violets, bacon, and blueberry leaps from the glass. A bit more restrained (a mere 15.0% alcohol) than its siblings, it is nevertheless a silky, layered, intensely flavored Shiraz with gobs of fruit and a 60-second finish. It should provide much pleasure from 2012 to 2025. Tasted February 2009. robertparker.com

 

This lot forms part of a private family collection with an enthusiasm for every corner of the wine-making world. Purchased on release from a reputable UK merchant. The wine was stored in a meticulously organised country house cellar prior to removal for this sale. Now lying at LCB Vinotheque.
