Domaine Hadjiantonas Shiraz Vintage 2005 | International Thessalonika Wine Competition | Gold Medal 2008 | Decanter World Wine Awards | Bronze

"Blooming nose with slight eucalyptus inside dark fruits. Tight structure with even tannins and a clove-y bite. More aromatics like on the nose , but smooth on the finish. Still some smokey oak lingering and time make the vanilla/mocha more prominent. Well- balanced and a strength that slowly uncoils. This will improve and hit a nice, if new world, vibe" recommended by Andrew H, Cellar Tracker

"Although only making wines since 2003, the winery has already gained an impressive reputation for consistently good wines that are of the highest quality" recommended by Chrissie F, The Wine Detective Forum

"This wine spent six months in new oak barriques... a dark strawberry red, I smelled black fruits with a little soft vanilla... the mouthfeel was a seamless and slightly sweet plum fruit sensation with a respectable length...
