Pretty rose gold color, interesting blend of Grenache, Mouved, and Counnoise (which I have never heard of). Fresh floral notes and red fruits on the nose, healthy acid, citrus. Little bit of bitterness on medium length/complexity finish. Very drinkable, though not remarkable. — 8 years ago
I've been on the hunt for this for a while now, and I'm happy to finally get some in my glass. The juicy cab franc with its spicy and peppery undertones does take in a Loire direction, but then the zweigelt adds a different sort of funk that pushes it into new territory. A lot going on here for such a quaffable wine, and it comes across as dynamic, alive and idiosyncratic. It also pushes all my happy buttons. Yum. Holla @Phil Ashton! — 8 years ago

Classic Adelaide hills Pinot. Bright fruit character of plum. Chinese 5 spice. Very balanced. — 10 years ago
Crisp and bone dry giving a lovely clean finish. Great way to start a meal. — 10 years ago
A new grape to me, swaddled in satin smooth moves, the renamed Nero (that used to be an Uva, or egg) de Troia, here is the kind of luscious red that the big red wine drinkers would adore. Maybe we should re-name Merlot as Mero de Troy... — 10 years ago

Is this the best to date? Since 2002 I am not sure I have seen a better Kalleske Greenock in its youth. 2012 was excellent with 2013 being a tad more elegant but in the end as excellent. As for this vintage, more on the darker fruit spectrum with spice influences. Appears at first like a full frontal assault that settles down as the senses become attuned. Love it...well done Troy and Tony and team. — 8 years ago

Sample from Estate. Deep and clear yellow, love this wine from the start, so visually appealing. Beautifully complex nose that started off with a little bit of oak influence, toasted nuts. Layers created the complexity with notes of stone fruits, and some citrus, almost like a lemon curd. Day two the nose got a little sappier, as in thicker and dark with some honeysuckle. Moderate acidity (6.5/10) and full bodied. Creamy mid palate with vanilla bean and honeysuckle in the front. Long finish that brings through a more Burgundy feel with lemon and a little minerality. Absolutely delicious and killer value for only $25.00. Drink now or enjoy till 2023. — 9 years ago

Cool beans, as they say. 1982. Oxidyzed nose, acidity softened but still lively. Even hanging in there on day 2. Thanks Troy & Gina! — 10 years ago
This one's for Troy Stark but what a Champagne! http://bonumvinum.wordpress.com — 11 years ago
Found this for 6.99 in Troy Alabama at a gas station on my way to the beaches of 30A. My rating does reflect that price, but how wonderful to find a true Pinot Noir inside a roadside gas station. Forest floor with soft and sour fruit and a pop of freshness throughout. — 8 years ago
Fantastic, with surf and turf. Picked up at Costco for 40 — 8 years ago
Sparkling Shiraz is an Aussie specialty and very appropriate on Christmas Day. This is interesting in that it is made by Ashton Hills with fruit from a 97 year old vineyard in the Clare owned by Wendouree. A rich mouth filling plummy palate with a gentle mousse soft tannins and acid with a long finish. Delicious! — 9 years ago
Such a cool couple and unique winery - this wine is lovely — 9 years ago
Second wine we are trying tonight and the same name as my mom. Garnet red with a crimson core. Nose started off with a slight smokiness that wore off to plums, dark cherries, and some light strawberries. Very interesting undertone of thick and creamy dark cocoa. Slight baking spices on the palate with some dark cherries and plums. Moderate plus tannins (7.5/10) with a strong structured body. Slight dryness to the finish. Definitely needs a couple years to fully integrate and becoming a stunning WA Bordeaux. Drink from 2017 till 2028. 55% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot. — 9 years ago
Crisp, tart and funky, light years from a traditional cider. — 10 years ago
The Helen of Troy of Greek wines. Elegant, restrained raspberry, pomegranate and caramel. A tasty wine, but it lacked the acidity I would have liked to see for it to be paired with the lamb chops. — 10 years ago
Floral and peppery nose, chalky tannins, a touch of dehydrated raspberries. Lushness!!! Everything tastes better in Troy❤️ — 10 years ago
