Gundog Estate is based in Canberra, with vineyards there and in Hunter Valley. Karl Marx, the dog on the label was bred to the gun, but can`t stand gunfire, though is an excellent rabbit botherer. The 2014 Gundog Estate Smoking Barrel Red is the first vintage of a crafty blend of Shiraz from Hunter and Canberra vineyards. It shows juicy fruit with proper freshness and a savoury component from the Hunter fruit. It has plummy and bramble fruit and is highly rated by the Australian wine press as well as by me.
