Lovely, brisk, pretty grenache, this one. Light on its feet. Light to medium bodied with great acid that complements the mix of dark cherry and red fruit notes. Yum. — 8 years ago

Off-vintage but tasty. A bit of a mouldy nose, eucaliptus, pine, herbs, blackcurrants and blueberries. Really strong presence of a pencil shaves note. Not as heavy and concentrate as it is. — 8 years ago

2011 - dark berries jump out of the glass, with subtle notes of cola on closer inspection. Pepper and dark berries with a touch of cherry on the palate, lovely acidity in the back half and a lovely long finish and sultry tannin. Beautiful wine from a spectacular terroir. — 11 years ago

Picture perfect rendition of what dry Clare Valley Riesling should be, without any crazy surprises. Bright ripe citrus, slightly under ripe tropical fruit, and bitter white phenols. Very enjoyable. — 11 years ago

Starting the week off with the 2011 King Estate Pinot Noir from Eugene, OR. King Estate is located 20 miles southwest of Eugene, OR on the southwest edge of the Willamette Valley on 1033 acres certified organic vineyard. I tried this four years ago and it has seemed to have matured a bit sunce then in those four years. A more pleasurable wine this time around.

On the nose there is beautiful fruit of strawberry, cherry, red raspberry, cranberry, vanilla, a little barnyard, cola and a slight bit of licorice.

On the palate I am getting sour cherry, tart strawberry, red raspberry, pomegranate, vanilla, eucalyptus and a light oak note.

The wine is medium bodied with medium + acidity and medium smooth tannin that leads right into a medium to long beautiful tart fruit prolonged finish. A very nice wine that is an easy drinker. The week is starting off right so have a great week and be safe. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 8 years ago

Just a hint of kerosene on the nose, her palest of apple fruits and a touch of acidity. This has aged very well and with some good weight in the mouth, a fine example of mature Aussie Riesling. — 11 years ago

Powerful aromas and flavours with grainy savoury tannins. These Wendouree Reds are built to last and I am starting to realise that they are best after 15 years. Certainly another 10 years in this one. Very Australian with Eucalypt/Menthol and earthy minerality - more savoury than fruit driven - not surprising at 17 years of age. — 7 years ago
