Having a Sparkling Shiraz on Christmas Day is a tradition in Australia. This is my first 2007 of 6. These wines have great longevity. Made only in exceptional vintages. Still a lively mousse at 17 years of age. Aged on lees for a minimum of 7 years. Youthful blackberry and chocolate flavours. There is a lot to look forward to with the remaining 5 bottles. — a year 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. — 5 months ago
2012 Jimmy Watson winner. No Bin 1 or Thompson family made in 20111 due to wet year so all the best fruit in this wine, drinking very nicely but noticeably greenish and lighter due to poor year. — a month ago

Excellent GSM blend (42% Grenache, 40% Syrah, 18% Mourvèdre) from the Grampians in Western Victoria (Oz), blue and black-fruited Syrah and tree bark Mourvèdre aromas and flavors, less red-fruited Grenache in this subtly higher acid 2021 vs. the 2022 that is also open, finish is a little cleaner and less tannic, long, lingering finish, my preference of this 2021 vs. 2022 showdown. — 7 months ago
