Wallace 08 makes the "100 Best Australian Wines" of the year

"Some years Bishop gets in, other years Wallace captures the flag. This year Wallace didn't just capture the flag, he got the whole castle, too. This is a magnificent Shiraz/Grenache blend and in spite of the Grenache element only just hitting the 20% mark, the overall feel here is one of ethereal, rhubarb and raspberry (Grenache) which leads and even dominates the swarthier, dark, rasin and chocolate (Shiraz). Hoorah for the underdog, because it is the Grenache in this wine which makes it so unutterably special"
