Tasting note: The massive 1997 Shiraz Piggott Range Vineyard (14.5% natural alcohol) slightly spicy, but is a classic in the sense of its fabulous display of cassis and blackberry fruit. Extremely full-bodied, with surreal levels of extract and richness, this powerful, mouth-staining Shiraz should be at its peak between 2000-2015. This wine is a crowd-pleasing, exotic offering that takes the level of richness and hedonism to sensational heights. This wine is worth trying if only because of its compelling purity, opulence, and explosive richness (96pts. RP, Wine Advocate)
