Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2010 Attunga 1865 Shiraz has moved into a meaty, savory, black-olive-laden phase of its development. It's full-bodied and velvety, perhaps a bit coarse in feel, adding dark-chocolate notes on the still-firm finish. While there's structure for additional cellaring, I'd prefer to drink it over the next few years.
