Wine Awards by Peter Bourne
“The Lowe Family wines, from Mudgee and Orange, have enjoyed a swift rise to international stardom since their 2003 Zinfandel won best in the world at the 2005 International Wine Challenge, and gold again in 2006”.
2005 Lowe Zinfandel, Mudgee, NSW $ 40.00
The 2005 vintage has just been released and, unlike its predecessors, has yet to win a major award. An intense bouquet of sour cherries, Christmas pudding and liquorices allsorts. The palate has oodles of black fruit, sweet spices and dark chocolate flavours
