I’m not sure what this wine retails for, but I paid $8 at the Treasury Employee Store. Really enjoyed the bottle…wish I had more at this price. — 6 days ago

Deep ruby color. Wow! Raspberry, huckleberry, blueberry toast and sandalwood aromas. Baked berries, cherry puree and earl gray on the finish. Amazing wine!

It’s Australia 🇦🇺 Day today 26th Jan and this represents the commencement of wine development in Australia
Established by Dr Christopher Penfold in 1844 the vineyard was planted with cuttings brought from England
The family home was called the Grange.
Double decanted and given time to open. At 35 yrs young this will definitely develop further.
Single Magill Estate Shiraz was first created in 1983.
Dr Penfold originally planted vines to produce tonics to treat ailments like anemia and his wife developed table wines - the family eventually listed the business on the Exchange but lost control in 1970s
Must say Penfolds have been producing good ‘medicinal’ tonics for about 180 years 🤗 — 3 months ago

[70% Shiraz, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon] Medium-dark ruby, faint bricking at edge, I mostly get the Cabernet, shows both its age and some heat (14.5% ABV), solid balance, medium-long finish, good Barossa Shiraz-Cab blend! — 2 months ago

Beautiful black fruit, spice, garigue and tar. Will improve over the next 5 to 10 years but very sexy juice right now. Magnum bottle. — a month ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of three days. Best on Day 2. The 2018 pours a deep purple color with an impenetrable core; medium+ viscosity with significant staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of ripe black and red fruits: brambles, tobacco, purple flowers, dill, vanilla, baking spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+ and pretty decadent with a velvety texture. Drink now through 2033. — 25 days ago

We had the 2012 Vintage on 2/14-15/25. An excellent Syray with tastes of blackberry, plum, mocha, leather and spice. As time went on the bouquet developed eucalyptus. Full bodied, New World. Fruit forward. I’m glad I gave it 13 years in the bottle. — 2 months ago
