#42 ENTHUSIAST 100 OF 2016; The Taylor family selected Clare Valley for its Cabernet affinity, but this Shiraz is a knockout. Yes, it’s oaky—full of menthol, vanilla and toasted coconut—but there’s just enough black cherry and plum fruit to support the wood. It’s a plush, full-bodied wine with immense appeal, for drinking now–2025. – J.C.
