Bodega Port Works

W. & J. Graham's

Vintage Port Blend 1983

A really good bottle of 1983 Graham’s, but it shows the tannic structure of the vintage and, also, the lack of traditional Graham’s sweetness makes the alcohol stand out; with that all said, still an enjoyable bottle of aged vintage Porto!! — 20 days ago

By Farr

Sangreal Pinot Noir 2021

A perennial favourite and always special. Nose and colour only hint at the depth and concentration of pure pinot goodness. Pure red and dark fruit wrapped in a shroud of prominent but fine tannin. Dark and brooding savoury spice. Exceptional length and juicy grip. Very fine — 25 days ago

Yarra Yering

Underhill Shiraz 2021

Pretty reduced, red fruits mostly, tannic and structured, also shows a distinct leafy green note (almost minty?), very fine length, needs cellaring. I’m probably underrating this, as in 5 years it may be lovely, the depth is there. — 22 days ago

Dow's

Vintage Porto 1991

11-12 hour decant on this bottle, which in retrospect was too long, medium color, drier Dow style, medium-bodied, good, not great, vintage Porto, I was expecting more? — 21 days ago

Yarra Valley Syrah 2021

Pop and ppur yesterday. Notes from 24 hrs open unrefrigerated on the counter. On the nose: olive brine, cabbage, garrigue, blackberry, vaguely like a (WA/OR) Rocks district syrah. On the palate: lovely acidity, solid density, blackberry, earth, stewed cabbage. The juiciness is intense on the finish, almost overpowering the soft grainy tannin. A gorgeous btl. Yum. — 25 days ago
