Natalie's Score: 90/100

Ultra-concentrated and intense: for those who want a blockbuster experience on the palate. Black fruit, smoke and rich fruitcake aromas on the nose. High in alcohol yet delicious. Full-bodied and supple with generous layers of flavour. Blueberries and blackberries on the finish. Try it with gourmet burgers and all the fixings heaped high.

Shiraz food pairings: grilled meats, pizza.

Reviews and Ratings

The alcohol on this bruiser of 6% will tickle your nose hair when you take a sniff. Yet it's rich and mouth-filling on the palate, not hot. Loaded with black fruit, the 2012 vintage of The Boxer Shiraz offers blackberry jam and dark spice. - Community Wine Reviews

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.
