Pale lemon in colour - crystal clear. Probably drinking this a little young even at 7 years of age. Initial funky notes amongst the nutty notes. At 7 years the oak is assimilating with the peach. Great intensity as you come to expect from the Art Series. At least another 5 plus years in the cellar would not be a problem. — 11 days ago

After an hr of air things just came together big fruit, present tannins and a great finish. Everything appeared in harmony and yet there seemed it had more to give. Hold for a few if you can. — 7 days ago

From magnum. Partially poured into a decanter and enjoyed over the course of a couple days. Best on Day 2. The 2015 Pritchard Hill pours a deep ruby/purple with an opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing and richly fruited with powerful, heady notes of cassis, blackberries, plum, purple flowers, tobacco, cocoa, some star anise and fine warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and the texture is luxurious. Classic Pritchard Hill character and surely a candidate for top vineyard status if the US were to ever adopt a classification status. There’s a long future here, especially in this larger format. Drink now with patience through 2055. — 3 months ago

Geweldige riesling met mooie tonen van steenfruit. Elegant. Nu wel nog te hoog in zuur. Paar jaar laten liggen en deze maakt je dolgelukkig! — 11 days ago

We had the 2020 vintage of Little Hill on 11/3-4/26. Tastes of black cherry, raspberry and spice. Wonderful mouth feel. Medium bodied, well balanced, New World. Aged and ready to drink, no tannin. Perhaps the best single vineyard I have had. — 11 days ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of 90min. The 2024 “White Hill” pours a pale straw color with medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is developing with bright notes of star fruit, passion fruit, stone fruits, lemons, a touch of freshly struck matchstick, some white flowers and minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+ and slightly saline. I love the character of these wines. Really tasty stuff. Drink now through 2034+. — 5 months ago

#AgedWineTuesday

Inky in color with a wide reddish rim.

Earthy nose with black fruits, cedar and lots of earth and vegetable notes.

Full bodied and soft with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, cherries, cedar, toast, light vanilla, tobacco leaf, herbs, mediterranean spices, dark chocolates, bell pepper, green tea, diet coke and peppercorn.

Long finish with soft tannins and cherries.

This 15 year old Cabernet Sauvignon from the challenging 2011 vintage, is drinking beautifully. Rich and fruit forward. Nicely balanced and very complex. Elegant and interesting.

Good right out of the bottle, and better after 30 minutes of airtime. I did not decant it and let it open up in the bottle.

As it opens up, more bell pepper notes show up. Feels like a Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon. Still drinking at its peak, but will not last long so drink up.

A great sipping wine that does not need food at all.

14.8% alcohol by volume.

93 points.

$35 (at release). — 4 days ago

This aged Oregon Chardonnay is still showing quite well, some honeyed aromas, but solid fruit and acidity, a medium-long finish, this is the first of 6 bottles I found in a box with non-Chardonnays, how well this is showing tonight gives me hope it will continue to drink well for a few more years, kudos to Mark Vlossak!! — 3 months ago

Definitely one of the best Cabernet Sauvignons I have had this year - also one of the oldest. What a beautiful perfumed nose - red florals, red fruits, mulberry and Spice. A well balanced medium weight palate with those same aromatics coming through on the palate. Smooth resolved tannins. This is the last of a dozen bought on release in the early 2000’s from an excellent vintage. This is living proof of how good Margaret River Cabernet is for top quality Cab. 2 hours later that beautiful perfumed nose never quits. I wish I had a few more bottles left. I do have a magnum of 1996 which needs to be drunk. 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot. — 5 months ago

Pale yellow in colour. Aromatics of Smoky Citrus rind. The medium bodied palate shows ripe grapefruit with citric acid toning down at 10 years of age. This is one of the best Chardonnays in Margaret River - up there with Leeuwin Estate Art Series without the latter wine’s ripe pear and white peach. This is a brilliant Chardonnay by any measure. My first of 3 bottles. 98 points from HH. — 6 months ago
