San Diego based, with stints in the Rheingau Valley and Burgundy. Wine is good for the soul.
Really good quaffer. My first Western Australia Shiraz. Powerful but well rounded. Still wind and sun blasted from a day in the Whitsundays. 😎🇦🇺 — 7 days ago
Good Shiraz. Little spice and pepper and then very smooth mid palate. Long finish. Good value, too. If I wasn’t on a fantastic beach in Northern Queensland, my rating might be a little lower. 😎🇦🇺 — 12 days ago
Fruit forward, big cassis notes. Not the longest finish but this is definitely a good value quaffer. Having it chilled after a long exhausting day on Fraser Island adds to the allure. 🇦🇺 — 3 days ago
It’s Great Northern, not Southern Brewing 🤣, but regardless, this is a really good crisp lager that fits the Tropical Northern Queensland weather perfectly. — 9 days ago
Good lager. Most popular beer in Queensland. — 13 days ago
After finding Australian cabs so and so, I am pivoting back to Shiraz. That’s where AUS shines, and this wine is a great example. Deep and intense flavors, structure and a long finish. Delicious. — 15 days ago
Very good. But I prefer the single variety Shiraz over the blend. I don’t think cab adds to AUS Shiraz, quite honestly. 😎🇦🇺 Note that I am rating the Vetus Purum reserve wine. Delectable just cannot classify it right. — 6 days ago
Delicious Shiraz from Barossa. Smooth with a long finish. Powerful fruit and elegant structure. Love the notes of cassis. So far this is the best of my AUS 23 in-country tasting tour. — 10 days ago
A pleasant Riesling from Barossa. But why drink Riesling if it doesn’t have the bone dryness and acidity of a German Riesling. Switching back to Shiraz - the real Aussie forte. — 15 days ago

Wow, very good Chardonnay. Crisp and pairs perfectly with oysters and other seafood here in Noosa. 🇦🇺 — 2 days ago
