Tasting Notes:

2x Kopparossa Coonawarra Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 -14% Alc
A richly flavoured red showing intense berry flavours with a hint of chocolate and mint on the after palate. The soft oak tannins and mouth filling flavours combine to produce a complex wine with great length. Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon Bottle ages extremely well. It’s ability to age and still retain varietal fruit characters as well as develop attractive new aromas and flavours is legendary. This wine demonstrates that capability perfectly.

2x Basedows Of Barossa Black Label Shiraz 2021 - 14.50% Alc
Dark red and purple hues. Balanced aromas of blackberry, cedar and pepper on the nose. The palate is decadent and rich flavours of plum, dark chocolate and black cherry combine with silky tannins to create a smooth finish.

1x Eileen Hardy McLaren Vale Shiraz 2017  - 14.50% Alc
Powerful McLaren Vale Shiraz flavours of chocolate, smoked meats and freshly tilled earth with layers of plum, raspberry and blueberry fruits. Powerful and loaded with flavour but with wonderful restraint and poise on the palate. The highlight is the tannin balance, with incredibly fine lingering natural tannin providing structure that gives the wine outstanding length & persistence.

1x Normans 1853 Museum Release South Australia Shiraz 2016 - 14% Alc
Strong crimson red, with a lighter red hue. Dark berries fruit nuances engulf you initially with hints of blackberry, sweet plum, black pepper and cinnamon providing further complexity. The palate is full bodied and up front shows blackberry characters highlighted by sweet plum then more subtle notes of cassis, black pepper and leather saddle. Upon another taste and time to breath the wine opens up further to display beautiful nutmeg and an almost fortified character from its obvious age which is so smooth and mouth filling it stays with you along with the oak and soft tannin structure for around 10+ seconds.

1x Evil Incarnate Shiraz 2021 - 13.50% Alc
Crimson with purple magenta hues. Expressive bouquet with dark berry fruit, some white pepper, vanillin oak and some further depth coming from chocolate and mocha notes. Quite a robust full flavoured Shiraz with blackberry the figurehead here whilst some alluring flavours of smoky oak, cinnamon, fruitcake and chocolate all intermingle through the middle palate before finishing with velvety smooth tannins.

1x Waller Wellman Kurtz Liaison Barossa Valley Shiraz 2022 - 14.50% Alc
Deep Garnet in colour. The first thing that hits the nose is a rush of toasted spices – peppercorn, cardamom and star anise – followed closely by dark fruit aromas of blackberry and blood Plum, with complex savoury notes of black olive, fresh coffee and warm spices layered with fine oak aromatics. The palate is rich and generous, with juicy dark-berry and plum flavours, complex earthy notes, mocha and spice. A smooth, textural mouthfeel is pulled together with a structural backbone that lengthens the palate with lingering fruit flavours, chocolatey tannins and notes of cedary oak.

1x Chateau Yaldara Lyndoch Valley Barossa Valley Shiraz 2021 - 14.50% Alc
Deep red in colour the 2021 Chateau Yaldara Lyndoch Valley Barossa Shiraz has aromas of cherries and blackberries. The palate is rich and displays complex characteristics that are long lasting. A perfect partnership between acidity and tannin whilst the oak development is hinged in the middle .

1x Fu2 Barossa Valley Shiraz 2021 - 14% Alc
Introducing the little brother of FU, the 2021 FU2. FU2 is inky red/black in colour with vibrant purple hues. It has great intensity and depth which is typical of the FU style. The aroma is truly distinctive, with rich dark chocolate, berry coulis, leather, and cinnamon. The palate is textural with powerful fruit flavours and silky soft tannins providing a rich mouthful of wine. The balanced tannins perfectly complement the influential fruit characters. The flavours mirror the complex set of aromas, toffee and spice with a big berry hit. A truly distinctive FU style from an outstanding vintage will ensure this wine is still drinking well with the best Australia has to offer well into the next decade.

1x Tweedies Gully Wines Eriksens Premier Barossa Shiraz 2017 - 15% Alc
Ripe black wild berries and spicy toasty oak raise the curtain to a brooding palate that is almost impossibly fruity and concentrated, 18 months maturation, 75% in new French oak hogsheads and 25% in new fine grain American oak hogsheads, adds layer upon layer of fine natural tannins and balance.

1x Clare Hills Clare Valley Shiraz Malbec 2021 By Pikes - 14% Alc
Medium to dark cherry red. Black cherry, cassis, mulberry and black forest cake aromas swirl around the glass, flecks of charry oak too. The palate weight is ripe, round and soft, but nicely poised. Fantastic concentration of black and blue fruits. Finely textured tannin profile provides length and complexity. 


Accolades & Awards:

Kopparossa Coonawarra Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
95 Point Rated - Australian Wine Showcase Magazine
"Good deal of bramble fruits on nose, with a nice minty edge. Palate is full of dense berry fruit that has nice firm spice and finish."

Eileen Hardy McLaren Vale Shiraz 2017
95 Point Rated - Ned Goodwin Mw Halliday Wine Companion
"Hand picked across a vineyard that is a century and a quarter old. The tannins here are increasingly refined and tautly furled by apposite extraction and long maturation in high-quality French oak. Violet lift. Further scents of blueberry, mulberry, clove, pepper grind and nori. The cedar and mocha-laden tension across the finish is this rich wine's totem. Oak, of course, but seamlessly handled, while auguring well for a long unravelling during extended time in the cellar."

95 Point Rated - Aaron Brasher The Real Review
"Dark and youthful in the glass, ageing gracefully. Brooding dark fruit aromas, satsuma plum, mulberry, maraschino cherry, spice, licorice, cola and sweet oak. Rich, layered, dark and powerful on the palate, with lashings of plum, blackberry, creamy sweet oak and spices. Plenty of plush, dark fruit here, all backed up with an ample lick of shapely tannins and acid drive."


Normans 1853 Museum Release South Australia Shiraz 2016

95 Point Rated & 5 Stars - Sam Kim Wine Orbit
"It's gorgeously maturing with dark berry, smoked game, toasty oak and warm spice aromas on the nose, followed by a richly flavoursome palate offering supple texture backed by layers of silky tannins. Generous and seductive with a sustained delectable finish. At its best: now to 2030. $60.00. www.normanswines.com. Feb 2024."


Waller Wellman Kurtz Liaison Barossa Valley Shiraz 2022
96 Point Rated - Sam Kim Wine Orbit
"Powerfully rich and gracefully complex, the wine shows blackberry, toasted spice, charcuterie, cedary oak and mocha characters on the nose, followed by a concentrated palate exhibiting impressive weight and plush texture. Multi-layered and sturdy with a sustained gratifying finish. At its best: 2025 to 2040. $60.00."

94 Point Rated - Australian Wine Showcase Magazine


Chateau Yaldara Lyndoch Valley Barossa Valley Shiraz 2021 
96 Point Rated & 5 Stars - Sam Kim Wine orbit
"Wonderfully fruited and enticing, the bouquet shows black/blueberry, rich floral, vanilla, hazelnut and cocoa notes, leading to a sumptuous palate that's filled with rich fruit intensity backed by silky texture and layers of polished tannins, making it delicious and hugely appealing. At its best: now to 2040. $90.00. Feb 2024."

93 Point Rated - Ned Goodwin Master Of Wine
"An intriguing, fuller weighted wine that successfully meshes a potpourri of dried nori, violet, boysenberry and clove, suggestive of a contemporary expression of Australian shiraz, with nostalgic riffs of cocoa nib, liquorice back strap and beef bouillon. The oak, a little aggressive, needing time to nestle. Fortunately, time  is something that this wine has on its side."


Clare Hills Clare Valley Shiraz Malbec 2021 By Pikes
90 Point Rated - Australian Wine Showcase Magazine
"Powerful dark fruit nose with sweet savoury aromas underneath. The palate is flavoursome and tannic, with intense sweet berry fruit to match it."
