Wine Review - Longhop Adelaide Plains Shiraz 2006

Campbell Mattinson, WineFront - 88pts
"Fifteen bucks for all this? You've got to be kidding me. This is big warm-hearted Aussie red wine at its bargain best. Lashed with licorice and raspberry and plum-cake flavour, it attacks with sweet fruit and never gives your throat a rest until the whole bottle's gone. There's a wave of alcohol warmth on the finish but I forgive it - I took this to a BBQ and nearly got mobbed. Grab a steak. Grab this. Be happy. Drink: 2006-2009."
