Firstly to explain the label. 24 years ago when I was Wine Chairman at the Downs Club I copied the Yalumba concept of honouring people who had done a great job for the company. 8 years ago the Club decided to honour the contribution of my brother Mike - hence this label. Prior to Mike there have been 8 ex Presidents recognised in this way. The Wine itself is a 2008 Glaetzer Heartland Shiraz from Langhorne Creek. This is the 11th bottle of a dozen and easily the best. Medium bodied with M - Tannins and Acid. Mature plum and chocolate flavours. Interestingly the back label says cellar for up to 5 years!! What do they know! This over delivers in spades at 10 years of age. A wonderful surprise. I will leave the last one for a family occasion. — 6 years ago

Another beauty from Ben Glaetzer. Tobacco, dark chocolate & spice on nose and it only got better from there. Love this! — 7 years ago

Saw last name Glaetzer as co-winemaker and realized why I was enjoying this Aussie cab so much. Hadn't had anything by him in a while. Wonderful dark fruit and chocolate. Very velvety and great price! — 9 years ago

Full disclosure. I'm a big fan of Ben Glaetzer. That said, with all that fruit, spice and nice finish for $15, I can't score it under 9.0 — 9 years ago

Deep red Pinot, cherry nose but savoury and earthy palate. Nice acid. Perfect with our truffle risotto.

Tastes like it could be from Napa, lovely oak and vanilla with a complexity that keeps opening with air — 6 years ago

Pretty nice pinot, on the thicker side, reminds me of zinfandel. Dried dark cherry and almonds. Cherries linger in the aftertaste. — 7 years ago

Well I dunno about previous years but wow the 2016 is great. Massive hit of strawberry upfront but enough backbone that I like it more than some of the Nouveau's I've had. So good in the warm weather! — 7 years ago
