Jeremy Oliver 95 points!"Built for the long term, this complete and sumptuous wine marries spicy aromas of violets, cassis, cloves and fennel with raspberries and mocha/vanilla oak. Its palate goes forever, is firm to finish and finely balanced, leaving a lingering impression of a big, spicy dark liqueur chocolate."
Jeremy Oliver, Aug 2000
Robert Parker 94 points!"The spectacular 1996 Shiraz Lloyd Reserve boasts a thick-looking, dark purple/garnet color as well as lavish quantities of toasty American oak mixed with blackberry liqueur. The wine possesses fabulous concentration, loads of glycerin, full body, low acidity, and a blockbuster 40+ second finish. A huge, chewy, surprisingly harmonious, mouth-filling Syrah made from 60-year old vines, it should drink well for 15+ years."
