2003 Camelback Shiraz, Rockbank Vineyard, Australia

We came across this wine at a fundraising benefit for the wildfires in Australia that was held at Crushpad in San Francisco.  Pulled straight from the MDM Dist. web site that describes this wine quite well: "densely colored with lifted aromas of dark berries and spice. Medium bodied with ripe fruit flavors and fine tannins with a soft finish"  Grown in the Sunbury Wine Region of Victoria, this vineyard is close to the city of Melbourne, just 30 minutes away.  This Shiraz was given a 91 pts by WinePros - the authority on Austalian wines.  I opened this bottle to enjoy with a Little Star Pizza that we picked up on our way home from wine tasting last night.  It went great with pizza and would probably fare well with other Italian foods and pastas.  Winery Map.
