Art Series

2005 Margaret River Shiraz

The Global Wine Company Art Series Shiraz from the esteemed Margaret River region is a captivating expression of this renowned varietal. This full-bodied red wine presents a beautiful balance of richness and elegance. With a high acidity that enlivens the palate, this Shiraz showcases pronounced fruit intensity, offering vibrant notes of ripe blackberries and plums intertwined with hints of dark chocolate and pepper. The tannins are notably structured, providing a firm backbone that is well-integrated with the fruit, enhancing the wine's complexity and aging potential. At the same time, this vintage delivers a pleasingly dry finish, making it an exceptional choice for both enjoyment now and cellaring for future occasions.

Western Australia

Fans of Aussie wine will be familiar with Western Australia's beautifully complex Bordeaux, Burgundy and Rhône varietals and blends. Lying south of Perth around the southwestern tip of the country, this relatively small area produces just five percent of Australia's wine. But when it comes to quality, Western Australia punches well above its weight. Well-known small sub-regions within Western Australia include Margaret River, Frankland River and the Blackwood Valley, where the dynamic Chardonnays, Pinot Noirs and Rieslings are distinctly European in character.
