Maxwell 2004 Four Roads Shiraz
Robert Parker has rated this wine 91; I rate it a bit higher because it not only exudes power but also captures solid, age-worthy structure in the manner of long-lived European reds, without being too lean. It even has cedar and lead pencil notes, reminiscent of a maturing French red, plus generous ripe blackberry fruit. Excellent length on the finish. Best 2009 to 2015, maybe longer. LCBO 57000
