Giaconda Warner Shiraz 2004 Magnum
$400
If you have a Giaconda way of thinking, and drinking, then you are in for a treat here. The flavours are along the expected lines ? graphite, black cherries, cedar and undergrowth, all of it clean but all of it interesting. There?s a smoky barrel-ferment character too, and quite a deal of cedary oak, but the thing that makes me rave is the tannin, which has a sense of exclusivity to it: this is a special, complex, compelling wine. 96 Points. Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front (May 2006).
