Here's Bruno Tait's take on the Ball Buster. "I wanted to name this wine "Michelle's Block" - after my wife. But that conjures up visions of a soft and elegant sort of wine - and trust me mates, this little beauty is nothing like that."

Lisa Perrotti Brown Wine Advocate 90 Points

A blend of 73% Shiraz, 15% Merlot and 12% Cabernet Sauvignon, Tait’s 2009 The Ball Buster provides a deep garnet color and aromas of blackberry preserves, prunes, mulberries and dried leaves with nuances of Indian spices and dusty earth. Full bodied and rich in the mouth, it has a high level of acid providing freshness to the generous fruit and a medium-firm level of grainy tannins, finish long with lingering notes of anise. Drinking now, it should remain good to 2015+.
