RATINGS

94Vinous / IWC

...Highly expressive aromas of boysenberry, blueberry, smoke, vanilla and cocoa powder, with a sexy floral undertone. Juicy, finely etched dark berry flavors are shockingly lithe and focused, with fine-grained tannins adding support

93The Wine Advocate

...offers up a fragrant perfume of smoke, violets, Asian spices, black cherry, and wild blueberry. On the palate this medium-bodied, elegant Shiraz has a silky texture, luscious fruit, and impeccable balance.

90Wine Spectator

Dark and dense, with a lively balance to the ripe currant and plum flavors, veering toward violet and spice as the finish lingers...

PRODUCER

The Standish

Standish Wine Company was founded in 1999 by Dan Standish, once a winemaker at Torbreck. The Barossa Valley estate has its own vineyards and also sources grapes from area vineyards. The estate’s flagship wine is The Standish, a Shiraz from the Standish Family vineyards. Robert M. Parker Jr. typically rates Standish wines in the mid to high 90s,

REGION

Australia, South Australia, Barossa Valley

South Australia is the nation’s most important wine region. South Australia is to Australia what California is to the U.S. About half of Australia’s wine comes from South Australia and many of the country’s most acclaimed producers are there. Wineries based in South Australia include Penfolds Grange, Torbreck, Amon Ra, Henschke and Jacob’s Creek. The prestigious Barossa Valley is located in South Australia, and is often compared to Napa Valley because it is gorgeous topography covered in grape vines. First farmed by 19th century German-speakers who immigrated from what is now Poland, the Barossa Valley is the crown jewel of the region. South Australia has widely varying climates, from very hot, dry areas to cooler, high altitude areas. There are more than 150,000 acres of vineyards in South Australia, with more being planted each month. Shiraz is king, though the region also produces Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache, Mourvedre, Chardonnay and Semillon.
