Fox Creek Reserve Shiraz 1998 presents a deep, concentrated crimson color in the glass. On the nose, it exhibits aromas of ripe blackberries, plum, and a hint of earthy spice, accompanied by layers of dark chocolate and toasted oak. The palate is robust, showcasing flavors of ripe fruit complemented by peppery notes and subtle hints of vanilla from barrel aging. Tannins are present but well-integrated, indicating a wine that has matured gracefully.

This vintage hails from the McLaren Vale region, known for its warm climate ideal for Shiraz. The 1998 vintage was notable for favorable growing conditions, resulting in fruit with good depth and character. Fox Creek is recognized for its commitment to quality, focusing on sustainable practices in its vineyard management. This Reserve Shiraz is a representation of the winery`s dedication to producing distinctively regional wines with a balance of power and finesse.

Saturated ruby. Sappy crushed blackberry aroma lifted by floral and minty components. Urgent dark berry and bitter chocolate flavors offer great sappy freshness and verve. There's nothing raisiny about this nearly painfully delineated shiraz. Extraordinarily penetrating, firmly tannic finish. Aged in American oak but oak was the last thing I noticed. Extraordinary juice.
