Pale straw glass. Big perfumed nose of passion fruit, honeydew, rose, white peach, gooseberry, lemongrass, vanilla, grapefruit, and a hint of jalapeño. Medium bodied clean mild acid to the palate of grapefruit, gooseberry, lemon, and white pepper that leads to a long citrusy finish. Great with chicken, fish or conversation! 2015 even more special with perfume over the top makes sublime value at $13.99 USD. — 10 years ago

Ripe pear and delicate floral/musk aromas. The palate has pear and white peach fruits ripened to perfection with perfect acidity, tightly wound, ensuring a long cellaring life.

Silkman

Hunter Valley Sémillon 2015

Subtle lime & stoney fruit, a strong mid palate & some complexity (& from what I read the potential for aging) 10.5% alcohol, a lovely slight effervescence completely blows away my negative biases @ Australian wines. I though at firstThat 20$ was a tad pricey-& thats 20$ on sale, but after i finished the bottle, its a bargain. — 8 years ago

Eden Road

The Long Road Shiraz 2010

Won the Trophy for Best Shiraz at the National Wine Show 2012. Fruit from the Gundagai region and starting to put this region on the map. Peppery red fruits and starting to develop some leather notes at 7 years. A nice counterpoint to the lush Barossa styles showing the versatility of Shiraz. — 9 years ago

Single Vineyard Drover's Hut Chardonnay

Turns out, I like Chardonnays. I had it paired with scallops crudo. I perfect combination. It you think you don't like Chardonnays, try ones outside of the U.S. They are generally smoother and crisper than the American ones I've tried. This 2012 vintage of Nugan Chardonnay was delicious. It was fresh and a perfect beginning to a delicious meal. — 11 years ago
