Dehesa de Lantana Crianza Rioja Tempranillo 2016

Bought from Majestic and drank at home. Nice easy to drink wine balanced and fresh. Similar to the red we bought from St-Omer. Didn't keep as well over the weekend — 5 years ago

Vat 1 Hunter Valley Semillon 2000

Waxy lanolin nose, grassy/lantana (from a cool vintage?) Still carrying plenty of acid @ 15 years Will last a while yet but the fruit won't match the acid. Still a good wine presently. This is the Vat 1. — 9 years ago

Moss Wood

Moss Wood Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 1996

Trademark Herbaceous notes with berry and chocolate and a trace of lantana. On the palate just medium weight and singing at 21 years of age. In a blind tasting many would say Left Bank Bordeaux. Restrained but striking the right balance - with light savoury tannins to finish off. Has always been, and remains one of Australia's best Cabernets. — 7 years ago

@Bob McDonaldLove those Margaret River wines. They don't get enough acclaim IMO.

@Spinning_spins Certainly one of the great areas for Cabernet in the world, and as it turns out, Chardonnay. Brings into focus the over restrictive situation in France and begs the question "how would Chardonnay go in Bordeaux?" We will never know.

Scarlett Sauvignon Blanc 2013

Very accessible sauv Blanc. Floral (lantana) and citrus on the nose, Well balanced favors of lime and banana and some other tropical themes. Paired well with leek and potato flatbread dusted with lemon zest. — 9 years ago

Moss Wood

Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon 2001

The winery rate the 2001 as a 10/10 vintage and one of the best since the 1995. Lovely herbal nose reminiscent of lantana. A descriptor which won't mean anything to non Australian tasters. Fuller fruit on the palate without overdoing it. Perfect balance showing why MW is one of the best Aussie Cabernets #aussiewine 18.5+ — 10 years ago

Seppelt

Dorrien Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 1998

Gorgeous complex nose of cedar, coffee bean and some lantana. Medium weight palate with good length. Barossa better known for its Shiraz but the Dorrien vineyard has produced excellent Cabernet for many years. — 10 years ago

Drank my last bottle of this on 9th June. Same notes as above except the overt Barossa sweetness shows thru. A real crowd pleaser. Delicious but lacking some complexity behind that sweet fruit. 18-
