Branson Coach House 2002 Rare Single Vineyard Coach House Block Shiraz (Barossa Valley)
- $75
Aromas are broad and profound, with very ripe fruit, and pretty biscuit and black pepper accents. The palate? Cassis, pepper, plum and meat.

Branson Coach House 2002 Single Vineyard Greenock Block Shiraz (Barossa Valley)
- $45
Has meaty, bacon aromas with creamy, peppery highlights. In the mouth, it's brawn in a glass—not a dumb jock, mind you, but the amiable linebacker who also wins "Mr. Congeniality." It has a rich, creamy feel on the front palate, good meaty heft in the middle, and zips up with a juicy plum and anise conclusion. Muscular, mobile and piquant, not fat and inert.
