Average Critic Score: 92.5/100

The 1999 is the standout vintage in the Museum Shiraz range. A warm, well-structured year in the Great Southern produced fruit with the depth and aromatic intensity that defines the region's best seasons, earning 91 points on release. The wine has aged with exceptional consistency: perfumed red and dark fruit alongside pepper, dried herbs and fine, fully resolved tannins. After 26 years in bottle it is drinking at its absolute peak. If you are choosing one bottle from this Museum Shiraz series, this is the one.

Critic Reviews

94 Points - James Halliday, Wine Companion

“Medium red-purple; a moderately intense and quite fragrant bouquet has a mix of spicy, earthy, juicy berry fruit; the palate has excellent texture and structure, with red berry fruit, spice, fine tannins and subtle oak. The only caveat is that it may develop relatively quickly. Overall second highest-pointed wine at the 2002 Divine State of Origin Challenge.”

91 Points - Falstaff

“The wines are drinking beautifully now, they do make terrific and rare gifts for wine lovers…”
