Tastes like a young Aussie Shiraz. Good fruit but not much complexity, lacking secondary notes. Screw cap. Part of a Garagiste mystery case. If I had another bottle I wouldn't open it for a few years. — 9 years ago

Classic "big" Aussie notes of prune and Port, but with some interesting secondary aromatics. Minor (if any?) acidification. I dig it, even if I can really only have a glass. — 10 years ago

Finally seeing a trend among Aussie cabs. They tend to taste like shiraz's, not a bad thing at all. — 11 years ago

The democratic winner of our 1995 tasting. Has been my personal Aussie Cabernet for some time. Jancis gave this vintage 19 points. Packed with all the Cabernet descriptors with the trademark Marg River herbaceousness. 19- — 12 years ago

Aussie screwcap FTW - this is legit. Plenty of Syrah notes for only 8% of the blend. — 10 years ago

4 hour decant: rich, deep nose of blackberry preserves, dark chocolate, tobacco, and fresh mint. Seductive on the palate, with dark fruits and black licorice. Just enough acidity to have a sense of balance, but definitely is a Aussie Shiraz. Finish lingers with excellent length. 16% ABV on the label, could be up to 17.5% by law. — 10 years ago

First tasted this #NewYearsEve #wine at an Aussie wine seminar at the SWE Conference. Loved it then... Without palate fatigue, love it now!

This Tasmanoise Sparkler is clear to pale gold. The bubble are hyperactive. The mouthfeel is clean and dry white cherry up front with a finishing yellow apple. The finish sinks and and the flavor lingers nicely. The bubbles are a bit aggressive overall.

A great change up from Champagne. I think it's great for the price. Opened 12/31/15 — 10 years ago

Delicious aussie shiraz...little to much oak (mostly American new o think) for my taste which overpowers the fruit, but really nice. — 11 years ago

Never run across Pepperjack before - and I've downed a lot of Aussie wines. I may need to keep an eye open for it. — 12 years ago

Arguably the wine of the day in the Aussie icons tasting. The great thing about St Henri is that Penfolds lets the gorgeous old vine fruit speak instead of clobbering it over the head with American Oak. Some herbal/liquorice aromas. On palate mellowing black fruits, medium bodied with great length - superb persistence of flavour. At its peak IMO but will probably last for many more years- just becoming more savoury. — 10 years ago

Wow. Had this Aussie Shiraz blend with an Aussie Wagyu Burger. Except for Grange-ish level, I often find Aussie reds the same and fat. But this one has the depth, character, and length that took my awesome burger to a new level. Half bottle (shucks). — 10 years ago

Really like this Aussie blend. A bit of musty horse barn on the nose. Smooth, dusty, long finish. Will buy again. Was on sale for $11.99 - great deal. — 10 years ago
