2006 Indra Shiraz
REVIEWS
James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion, July 2009
Bright hue; combines generous black and red fruits with a distinct brush of spice and good acidity, the oak and tannins in the back seat. Find review here.
Huon Hooke, November 2008
Medium dark red purple. Very good colour. Big generous, chocolaty nose. Loads of flavour: deep, plushy, sensual and chocolaty. Savoury leather and spices also. Serious vino! Full-bodied, dense, chocolate/mocha flavoured and slightly firm to close - but has more than enough flavour and richness to match. Profound stuff. Find review here.
Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front, September 2009
Lethbridge is an outstanding wine producer. It isn’t certified biodynamic but is well on the way – both in its estate vineyards and in the vineyards it buys grapes from.
A settled, composed, sophisticated wine. You can tell its quality at a glance. It tastes of dark cherries and plums with spicy highlights, its nutty, cedary oak matched perfectly to the bright intensity of the fruit flavours. Ripe strings of tannin allow all the wine’s flavours and parts to move effortlessly through your mouth. Class-ee. Find review here.
Greg Duncan-Powell, Sydney Morning Herald, November 2006
This shiraz has plenty of cool climate perfume but with considerable depth, too. There are luscious black cherry-Satsuma plum aromas, white, black and green pepper and a seductive texture courtesy of a smidgen of viognier. Serve with pink Spring lamb. Find review here.
Jeremy Pringle, Wine Will Eat Itself, January 2013
Deep, concentrated dark cherry and plum with intonations of sweet brown spice, nuts, lilacs and violets. It’s agile for such a ripe wine, not to mention shapely with super-fine tannin intact and extending the pleasure. Identifiably cool climate yet more luxe than angular in profile. Elegant decadence, right in its drinking groove – although it will live quite a lot longer. Read more here.
