An Aussie Riesling that I, a Canadian Riesling “freak,” can happily knock back. Too bad we couldn’t arrange an on-the-spot tasting at the winery the other day. — 8 years ago
Amazing wine! — 8 years ago
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
2009 showing some nice age flavours. — 10 years ago
Was a 9.2 yesterday, but after sitting overnight it definitely improved. The wood seems more integrated and the whole thing is more vibrant. Nice balance of fruit and earth. I'll hang on to my other bottle of this for awhile. — 10 years ago
Tyler's new favorite dinner wine! — 11 years ago
2005. A house favourite and one of the best expressions of New World Riesling which exists. The late release adds both a great story but the required time to make this superb wine really sing. — 11 years ago
Heavy Chardonnay. Very buttery. From Bin 608 in Baltimore — 13 years ago

A little too much vanilla for me, but it was beautifully balanced by the acidity. Very delicious wine. — 8 years ago
Perfectly aged. Kerosine on the nose. Perfectly balanced. — 9 years ago
Must decant/air for 3+ hrs.
Opens up to a sumptuous wine. Dark plum coloured. Earthen nose. Leather, must, dried violets but with subtle blue berries. Fantastic mouth feel. New world with forward fruits heavy and rich. Vanilla, licorice and cola. Medium plus tannins. Would not pair with rich meat or steak. Hard and semi-hard cheese should be good. — 10 years ago
Nice basic Chardonnay. A little bubbly not a lot though — 10 years ago
Very drinkable Pinot for every day — 11 years ago
Pleasantly surprised at the quality of this $13 (at HEB) Pinot. Can easily play with the big boys. Fruity but not sweet. Paired well with salmon and beef. Versatile. — 11 years ago
Powerful aromatics that speak to Aussie Riesling... Key lime, grapefruit, lemon zest, and petrol - think fresh tennis balls. Bounding acidity meets ripe, juicy tropical fruit, as this maintains a dry, lasting finish. Paired with spicy curry, but would also go great poolside in the summer. Fun fact: Vineyard planted in 1912. Outstanding effort. 11% ABV — 7 years ago
I’ll have the whole bottle, please. — 8 years ago
The 2015, the other half of the night's comparison. Less subtle, more floral. Jasmine, rose petal, honey. All powerful, but all a bit separate and distinct. I think this could lie down for a good while. Will be pleased to try another bottle in a few years. — 9 years ago
Very interesting, super sweet — 9 years ago

Smells like winter ❄️ menthol, apple, toasty, creamy, touch of honey on the nose. The taste lemongrass, rose petal... Gives you a silky tongue 🌹😛 — 11 years ago

This was crispy and fresh with a fairly acidic finish. — 7 years ago
