@Doug Powers Love this wine. Great QPR. Their top Cuvée Langhi is one of Australia’s best IMO.

Don't tell Gary Shiraz 2020

Vintage 2020 | Licorice in smell, cherries, blackberries, I thought it to be pinot noir because it has a certain frivoliy. Wine with a story. Good effort. — 2 years ago

Old Vines Pinot Meunier 2016

This wine is somewhat of a unicorn being made from vines planted in 1868 believed to be the oldest Pinot Meunière vines still being used to make wine in the world. I decanted this wine but probably no need as there was zero sediment. Colour was a transparent light Ruby red. A palate of bright red cherries with a toffee note. Light to medium weight palate. Not as complex as an older example I once tried which was stunning and different. This has a long life ahead of it. This is the first of 3 and not ready yet. — 2 years ago

Les Grisières St. Joseph Syrah 2015

Dense dark crimson in colour. Aromas of blackberry, pepper, and a whiff of charcuterie. On the palate much the same descriptors of blackberry and black pepper, medium plus bodied, finishing with persistent smooth tannins. Not as fruit driven as some top Australian Shiraz but then again should be compared with a top Shiraz from the Grampians district like Mount Langhi Ghiran “Langi “ where I would point the latter slightly higher.- both at a similar price. Tasted 57 weeks later on 4th February 2022 with similar notes - hint of tar. Pretty solid in this warm vintage. — 5 years ago

Show Sparkling Shiraz 2007

Having a Sparkling Shiraz on Christmas Day is a tradition in Australia. This is my first 2007 of 6. These wines have great longevity. Made only in exceptional vintages. Still a lively mousse at 17 years of age. Aged on lees for a minimum of 7 years. Youthful blackberry and chocolate flavours. There is a lot to look forward to with the remaining 5 bottles. — 6 months ago

@David T Great choice David. Rockford and Seppelt are the 2 best.

@Norman Gennaro Seppelt may be easier to find than Rockford.

Mount Langi Ghiran

Shiraz Blend 2009

One of my favourite Australian Shiraz blends for a long time. Back when I bought this it was $95 but now unfortunately about double that. Deep Ruby in colour. Aromas of Spice, pepper and red fruits. Medium weight palate of cherry, plum and a touch of aniseed. The palate might be medium weight but the intensity is medium ++ which makes it one of Australia’s best cool climate Shiraz. From the ancient soils of the Grampians. From a drinking window this will still be drinking well leading up to 2030. — 4 years ago
