Gundog Estate Marksman's Shiraz 2010

What struck me most about the wines from Gundog Estate was their freshness and this is a credit to the winemaker Matt Burton.

This wine is literally the top dog in the portfolio. Only 150 dozen made. The quality of the wine is obvious as it has already sold out. Well done to those lucky few who have snared a bottle or two.

Made from Canberra fruit, the wine has spent time in French oak for fourteen months. Medium bodied, the fruit is delicate, plummy and laced with soft spice. There is some mouth warmth and subtle oak char polished off with fine silky tannins.

Very impressive full stop with the best drinking ahead of it. Throw it in a dark spot for a few years and it'll be happy days!
