So youthful, assisted by a great cork. Amazing power with velvety richness. Truly lovely. — 9 days ago

Opened after Xmas lunch as we needed a follow up to the Black Shiraz. Did not disappoint. Mature and soft with all the lovely spice and dark fruit of the basket pressed. Lovely. — 14 days ago

Very fine chardonnay. Very expensive toasted French oak on the nose which is integrated well with the fruit. Rich and chewy but lacking length and minerality which would have given it a higher score. — 15 days ago

Wow. My first Austrian Riesling. Lovely wine. Nice acidity and some citrus but an unexpected rich middle palate with unctuous mouthfeel and creaminess. Stunning wine. — 12 days ago

Drunk after Rockford Black Shiraz for Xmas lunch. Totally different to the Rockford but held up with its fine structure and length. Perfect follow up with Xmas lunch. — 14 days ago

Magnificent! So fragrant and velvety, there is a good reason hunter Shiraz used to be called Burgundy. Fruit still vibrant with lovely tertiary characters. — 16 days ago

Not the best 2000 I have had. Some harsh characters but still with nice fruit, eucalyptus and saddle leather. — 14 days ago

My first real Lambrusco. Extremely dry, perhaps zero dosage? Licorice and dried herbs. Interesting but not for me. — 14 days ago
