Brown Brothers Patricia Shiraz 2005 Our Price: $55.95
|
|
| 2005 Patricia Shiraz Nose of dark berries, spice and mocha oak. A rich warm palate with a hint of dark chocolate, firm tannin structure and a long finish. There is a quibble about the noticeable American oak and the firmness but the wine will definitely benefit from some cellaring. This bottle appeared to be in better balance than the one reviewed in February 2009 Winewise. We strongly commend the screwcap closure. Recommended

Henschke Cyril Cabernet Sauvignon 2006 Our Price: $123.95
|
|
The 2006 vintage shaped up as another high quality year but with only average yields. After a late break in mid June 2005, the winter and spring rains were some of the best for years. The summer was mild reminiscent of 2002. The '06 is deep crismon in colour, with a complex nose of sweet lifted fruit aromas of red current, plum, tobacco with cedar anise and cigar box notes The palate is elegently layered, with good acidity and structure the adds finesse to the fine grained tannins on the finish. Drink now or cellar for the next 10 years

Penfolds Magill Shiraz 2001 Magnum 1.5L Our Price: $250.00
|
|
| A medium weight palate, with mulberry and
wild raspberry fruits, tightly contained by
satiny tannins that literally coat the whole
mouth. Charming, balanced, and long
lingering flavours, are courted by malty oak
and ideal acidity. In the mould of the 1996
release.

Penfolds St Henri Shiraz 2001 Magnum 1.5L Our Price: $290.00
|
|
A full bodied offering with a generous mid palate and formidable weight for the style of wine. Tight, with rounded, integrated, yet obvious tannins, primary flavours of black fruits, blackberry conserve, dark plum, liquorice and spice are evident. A youthful, lively wine with no oak influence. A wine of the vintage, demanding larger glassware and an energetic swirl.

Penfolds Grange Magnum 1.5 Litre 1999 Our Price: $1,200.00
|
|
| Milky, sweet, coffeed, really notice the oak coming through on these younger vintages. Acids and tannins not yet integrated – but there is a hell of a lot to be impressed by here. Lovely power, lovely softness, lovely hit of savouriness, and then significant length. Similar to the 1994, but better. Campbell Mattinson, Wine Front August – October 2007
