Recent Wolf Blass Accolades
Date: 1 January 2005

Both locally and internationally Wolf Blass has received some great reviews for products released this year, particularly for the Wolf Blass Grey Label range:
Wolf Blass 2002 Grey Label Cabernet Sauvignon:
This wine reeks of its Langhorne Creek origins, with blackcurrant, eucalypt, mint and dark chocolate on the nose and palate with fine tannins and toasty oak. Great now with roast lamb, it´ll take several years in a bottle.
(Mike Frost, Courier Mail, 17/4/2004)

Wolf Blass 2002 Grey Label Cabernet Sauvignon:
The minty smells of the Langhorne Creek fruit really attack from the outset. This is a classy wine showing some exceptional fruit qualities that are expertly crafted into a complete package. A super wine.
(Ray Jordan, The West Australian, 22/4/2004) Score: 91/100

Wolf Blass 2002 Grey Label Shiraz:
This wine is another example of the finessing of the Wolf Blass reds. The oak is still there for the fans of the ´old´ style, but it´s a lot less obvious. The skin tannins are supremely fine and the fruit is ultra fresh. A beautifully crafted red.
(Tasting Panel, Wine Wise, 1/4/2004)

WINE SPECTATOR North America´s most eminent wine magazine recently reviewed the following Wolf Blass wines:

Wolf Blass 2000 Black Label Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz: 92 points
This has a lot going for it, especially the way the Shiraz fattens up the Cabernet. Ripe and welcoming, it´s a smooth-textured, lithe red that offers black cherry, raspberry, mint and licorice flavours. It finishes a tad hot, but a little food will balance that. The flavours linger impressively. Drink now through to 2015.

Wolf Blass 2002 Gold Label Shiraz: 91 points
"...aims for a gentle, relatively delicate style and achieves it without losing the round, velvety and generous character
of Barossa Shiraz. It´s not typical, but it´s a honey, with smoky blackberry and tar flavours, gently balanced with tangy
acidity. The emphasis is on the berry and spice that linger on the finish."

Wolf Blass 2003 Gold Label Chardonnay: 92 points
A gentle style with rich pear, cream and mineral flavours that sneak up and wash over the long, finish like an ocean swell.
