Wendouree

Shiraz 1999

Ruby/crimson in colour - a tawny rim developing. A little porty to begin with - the trademark Wendouree/Clare Valley menthol/eucalyptus. A note of Iodine. Very earthy on the palate. This wine speaks of the ancient terroir where vines have been planted since the 1880’s. Full bodied, intense and powerful even at 25 years of age. A true icon of Australian wine but even Wendouree Shiraz does have an end point and I think this 1999 has reached its peak. — a month ago

Another beauty, @Bob McDonald. Not available in the U.S. If I were back in the UK, I’m sure I could get my paws on some!

@Ron R Ron I think fellow Delectable poster Severn Goodwin got his hands on some Wendouree over there but it was expensive.

My first bottle of this Aussie Icon, this is pretty damm good! I love this delicate style of Syrah, lots of dark fruit and great spices in this still very young wine. I hope to stock some bottles for the next 10years but could be tough😋 — 3 years ago

Vaillon Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2021

Chablis 1er cru from Christian Moreau for the New Year celebrations with my landlord. I shouldn't have, some people don't understand anything about wine.
I learned about this wine during our corporate event at The Icon on 22.12.2023, where waiters were trying to increase the company's note 🙃 it's was a nice time.
