Penfolds

St. Henri Shiraz 2005

A Collection of great Australian Reds - Christmas break up of the Tennis Group. This was the wine I brought. I forgot to say all these wines were tasted blind. Only the owner of the wine knew the identity. This was a standout thanks to the vintage with a long life ahead of it. HH has a drinking window through to 2040. As well as the savoury liquorice accents like the 2007, this had plenty of red and black fruits. That was my 3rd of 6 - 3 to go. Next in a couple of years if I have the willpower. — 3 years ago

2008 was a warm year in South Australia and I see varying drinking windows. The Rewards of Patience says 2021 to 2045. Harvey Steiman said 2015 to 2025. Looks like a drink or Hold.

Diego Conterno

Barolo Nebbiolo 2020

Delectable Wine
9.2

Diego Conterno’s 2020 Barolo is, once again, a terrific wine in its peer group. Deep, fleshy and super-expressive, the 2020 is ready to go. Crushed rose petal, spice, blood orange, menthol and cedar are front and center. Vibrant, fleshy and terrifically balanced, the 2020 is an absolute delight. I loved it.

Château d'Yquem

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 1990

Tasted blind, although with more than 10 straight bagged bottles served that are all 1990s the entire group and the dog all guess this as the 1990 d'Yquem. Great weight in the glass, rich and powerful. Notes of apricot, tan spice, some stones and rocks and a little crème brulee. Great finish to an evening of 1990 bottles where we could compare and contrast much of what was great from that year. Thanks Murray! — 5 years ago
