Wolfgang Blass has made some cracking statement.
"Barossa should focus on what it does best: full-bodied Shiraz"
"No table wine over 15% should ever get any medal, anywhere in the world, ever."
and his wines would "make strong women weak and weak men strong."
I respect him for making what i consider valid statements.
Wolf Blass Eaglehawk Merlot 2010
I really struggled with this and I'm normally open to try any kind of wine. It took me a few hours to sit with this wine and it never improved. The initial burst of flavour is burnt or baked fruit mixed with tinned veggies and a little mulberry juice. The flavour profile dried out towards the back leaving me wanting more of a different wine. All I can say was at least the palate was short.
