I bought it at DM's wanting something local and had never had anything from Gilbert's before, and on the strength of this I will definitely be taking a closer look at their wines. This shiraz shows alot of depth, with a great nose and palate. Not sure how long it would be good for cellaring, but I would seriously look at buying a case to put down for a while, maybe 5 years or a bit more. A good wine indeed.

Consistently great wine year after year. Displays all the characteristics you’d expect from a full bodied Shiraz. A reliable go-to every time. The earlier releases (mid 2000’s and younger) are also drinking well. You can never go wrong with this wine - it’s a hidden gem from the south west of WA.

This is a perfectly balanced full flavoured red wine in what I would call the "chateau style". Excellent to accompany any premier cuisine one would wish to enjoy and remember. Well recommended.
