Henry's Drive Australia Shiraz 2007

89/100
Unusual wine with dense, savoury flavours with plum/christmas cake, licorice, leather and baked earth characters. The wine has an almost chewy texture that gives the appearance of having been unfined and unfiltered (although that is not stated on the label). High alcohol of 15% gives a rich and warming influence. An unconventional Shiraz that's dangerously easy to drink.
