Jancis Robinson

(2011 Vintage Notes)

Named in honor of the royal family’s first visit to Australia in 1954, Philip Shiraz embodies a centuries-old family tradition. Crafted in a distinctly Australian style, this complex wine comes from the best-located vineyards in the Hunter region. Aromas of spices and wild berries blend with subtle, well-integrated oak. A local favorite!
