Bin 128 Coonawarra Shiraz 2015

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. — 8 days ago

Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

3/6.5/9.5 = 19 out of 100 say 94.5
Great vintage 2010 - very strong., great mouthfeel, long linger. Mint with tobacco, strong acid structure and still plenty of tannins. Will go at least 3-5 years more.

Bowen Estate

Estate Grown Coonawarra Shiraz 2018

Another great value red from Coonawarra - this from Bowen Estate. I paid $27.50 at the cellar door in 2021. Their excellent Cabernet Sauvignon was the same price. In earlier days this Cuvée showed cooler climate characteristics of white pepper - not evident in this bottle. This shows more spice, red berries and black olives. Just a medium weight palate and obviously great QPR. Interestingly in the early days of Coonawarra, Shiraz was more planted than Cabernet Sauvignon - it’s the reverse these days. — 5 months ago

Phoenix Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Taking a nip for the rating. For $12 or so this works just fine. Enjoyable and no complaints. Maybe 13 years helped. — 3 months ago

South Ridge Paso Robles Syrah 2022

Deep red color. Smells of rose petals and musky rose aroma. Flavors of licorice and smoke. Dense and a little strange. Lovely. Tasted blind. — 2 months ago
