A Promise of Quality
Promised Land is designed for immediate drinking and a decent bang for your buck. For around $14 (and often cheaper), they're reliably good value. I could just as easily have written about the cabernet as the shiraz -they're both good. This has plums and red berries, and some savoury spice. Nothing overly complex, but certainly a notch up on what the price would suggest.Top Bottles - Wine NV

The red berry, plum and spice flavours of this drop will be a good accompaniment to a grilled steak or gourmet sausages at a barbecue, or with a mature cheese afterwards.New Releases NV

Deep dark colour. Bouquet of cedar and sweet vanillin oak plus some fragrant plum and dark berry fruits. Palate is warm and soft with rich earthy shiraz supported with supple tannins. Drinking now.Shiraz Tasting NV

Shiraz Tasting
Clean, with good length and gently rounded tannins. Surprisingly cool and elegant for this price point.NV
James Halliday, Wine Companion 2011, September 2010
Bright Hue; a very well made, juicy shiraz with red and black fruits jostling for a position on the first row of the grid, tannins and oak somewhere in the pit lane. Great valueWorld's greatest shiraz challenge NV
