d'Arenberg's The Footbolt Shiraz palate is consistently well structured with terrific fruit and integrated tannins providing great texture to support the plum, blackcurrant and rolling blackberry flavors, especially on the mid-palate. These are followed by a traditional, long, velvety, fine grained tannin finish. '90 points. The '07 d'Arenberg Footbolt offers fragrant aromas of wood smoke, game, and blueberry; layered and balanced; will evolve for several years and drink well through 2019.' - Robert Parker
