Personalised Silkman Wines Reserve Shiraz 2017 12.5% 750ml Gift Boxed

James Halliday- 95 Points. There is more flavour here, seemingly more oak (even though integrated) and maximum fruit sorting/ selection, but the same black hole in information as its sibling. Either or both of these wines would have received higher points if information had been received, especially for the extra layer of plum and black berry fruits here.
