The deep ruby-colored 2001 Shiraz Thomas Hyland exhibits a concentrated bouquet of lard/bacon fat intermixed with black currant and blackberry fruit. It reveals a big mouthfeel, noticeable American oak, and a good finish. Drink it over the next 2-3 years. Importer: Southcorp Wines, The Americas, Napa, CA; tel. (707) 258-8755
