“This wine supposedly won a major, I mean, a major Trophy last year. I subsequently bought 6 bottles, but having finished 2 now, I can propose that these bottles are not what was shown in that wine competition, no way!!! I feel had. Normally wine competitions are are good guide, but this example, suggests they have inserted a special barrel and bottles for the comp, and bottled for retail other barrels. Yes, this is a $20-25 bottle of shiraz, but it ain't a silver medal winner. Too green, too herbaceous. 85-86 points at best”
