Red Wine by Marquis Philips from McLaren Vale, Australia. The 2005 Marquis Philips Sarah’s Blend is predominantly Shiraz with significant portions of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot and a touch of Cabernet Franc. 100% barrel fermented in new and 1 year old oak (10% French, 90% American oak.) and barrel matured for 12 months. The 2005 wines show generous and concentrated fruit and this vintage of Sarah’s Blend is a great example with its flavors of blackcurrant fruit married with opulent toasty oak.  It has silky, smooth tannins and shows some lifted and spicy fresh fruit aromas along with its bold fruit expression. One of my favorite Marquis Philips cuvees is the 2005 Sarah’s Blend, a concoction of 60% Shiraz, 22% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, and 3% Cabernet Franc fermented in wood and aged in both new and one-year-old French and American oak. Its deep ruby/purple hue is accompanied by aromas of flowers, spice box, blueberries, black currants, and smoky oak. Opulent, voluptuous, and full-bodied, with low acidity and sweet tannin, this is a blockbuster red that sells for a song. If you like fruit, flavor, and character, this is a big-time winner to drink over the next 3-4 years. - Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
