Wine Will Eat Itself
There's a real mouthful of shiraz in here. It's a big earthy shiraz with stacks of savoury, dusty fruit, ripe tannins and a layer of creamy oak. It's a warm easy drink, ideal for the barbie.

Promised Land Shiraz 200988/100James Halliday, 1001 Wines Under $20, November 2011
A no-frills wine that under it's Wakefield Estate export name has occasionally had considerable success in the overseas wine shows, and has been made to a consistent style and quality for a number of years. It is a medium-bodied wine towards the upper end of expectation at this price point, with red and black fruits, a touch of spice and minimal tannins.

Good colour; a medium-bodied wine at the upper end of expectation at this price point, with pleasant red and black fruits, a touch of spice and minimal tannins.
