At my 2015 Chardonnay Challenge this wine finished 2nd of the 6 wines tasted. Back in 2017 this wine won the James Halliday Chardonnay Challenge from 630 entries. Flinty. Some tasters have compared this to Grand Cru Chablis. Reinforces the view that Adelaide Hills is a wonderful terroir for Chardonnay. — 3 months ago

Stopped off at a lifelong friends apartment. He likes wine but it does not go beyond that. Says to me after pulling several bottles ( including 2 Rockford BP) from the corner of a very warm room, “What should I do with these wines?” Trying to remain calm, I said , “I think you need to open one.”
Surprisingly, the cork was intact, but totally soaked to the top. What we encountered was a red/purple wine that looked like it was bottled a few years ago. The nose was big and full of dark fruit along with some oak but zero alcohol Taking a small taste I was absolutely taken back by the juiciness & deep plummy flavors swirling around my mouth. I noted very little secondary flavors but the level of acidity shocked me. Tannins were soft and the fish was modest. — 8 months ago

2014 - With aeration, luscious tight dark mountain fruit bouquet, great body, long smooth finish; even better after breathing for an hour; better to have decanted; solid! — 4 years ago

Sadly the last of the 2006 vintage left in the cellar. 18 years down its drinking better than ever with the old Shiraz notes seeping through peppers and mint. Just bloody lovely! — 6 months ago

Second bottle after Bin 389. I like this one more. Beth liked Bin 389 more. This felt smooth but powerful relative to Bin 389. — 4 years ago

At the Henschke weekend at Spicers Maryvale. Brief Notes. Multi vintage - 100% Pinot Noir grown on the Henschke Lenswood vineyard in the Adelaide Hills. I love Blanc de Noir, Egly Ouriet being a favourite. This is also very good and good value. — 6 months ago

An old favourite Pinot Noir chosen off the Wine List at Blowfish Broadbeach. Red fruits and confectionery. A lovely volume to the medium weight palate with excellent mouthfeel - supple tannins. Always enjoyable - from the Adelaide Hills. — 9 months ago
