Seductive nose of blueberry, cassis, cedar, dark roasted coffee bean,, nutmeg, peppery spice, touch of barnyard, and hint of tobacco. Probably the most harmonious palate Iβve had in an Aussie Shiraz. The oak and alcohol are totally integrated, with ample acidity and soft elegant tannins. Powerful and graceful.

This is the Recta Pete. Shockingly drinkable for a 2021. Gorgeous on Day 2. Bordeaux bottle? Aussie winemaker? Will buy more! β 7 days ago
Classic Aussie Bordeaux blend. Unmistakably New World with the deep dark fruit on the nose and the full bodied round opulent style on the palate. Not enough tannin or acid to balance the super-ripe fruit. β 2 years ago
Another Aussie stunner cutting through the mediocrity in the marketplace today. In our minds, this wine needs at least 4 years of bottle age to reveal its true colors, then look out.
Reminds us of a French GC with piercing focus, presence and linearity. Top shelf stuff. β 4 months ago
Had a couple of these βBlue Boysβ in my cellar. Mollydooker (Aussie for left-hander) Wines was established in 2005 by Sarah and Sparky Marquis. Dark Ruby with big dark berry fruit nose adding sweet spice and cedar. On the palate this wine has complex flavors of blackberry and blueberry with cacao, oak and vanilla. Fine dusty tight tannins, peasant mouthfeel, full-bodied, long ending with a nice spicy finish. Aging well, good now, has room to run. β 4 years ago
Good tasting Aussie Shiraz and Great deal for the price. β 5 years ago

Very similar comments to the 2018. This is in the top echelon of Aussie Chardonnay. Just beautiful! πππ½ππ½ β 22 days ago
