The Syrah adds such great mid palatte to the wine. Not enough cab/Syrah blends. — 2 years ago

My first 2016 BP Estate. Powerful red fruits with a whole bunch stalky element. A typical BP Estate with that stewed fruit rhubarb type character Similar to many other BP Estate Pinots I’ve had on Delectable from other vintages. — 3 years ago

My first of 7 bottles from the 2015 vintage and the ultra close planted Issan vineyard of 5 Hectares planted 9000 vines per Hectare. Rich red fruits with bunchy earthy notes. Not quite as impressive as the 2013 vintage (see previous Delectable notes) which Philip Jones called a freak wine. Medium to full bodied. Lots of fine tannins. Have the remaining bottles every year for the next 6 years. I ended up having the last bottle 175 weeks later on 31st May 2025. This wine was best in its youth and did not develop as hoped. This Issan Cuvée not produced any more under the new French ownership. — 4 years ago

Guessing this is in its sweet spot. 15 years old and showing some maturity, but still youthful. — 2 years ago

Bass Phillip is arguably the best producer of Pinot Noir in Australia so you would expect he would produce an excellent Chardonnay - and he does. This had full buttercup yellow in colour. Big and generous - rich and buttery with ripe fruit and integrated oak. Some notes of pear amongst the stone fruit. Somewhat old fashioned in style. — 3 years ago

Very elegant Bordeaux blend and as time dials down the alcohol and smoothes out the oak this will be a gem. — 4 years ago

Aged very well. Rich fruit but with a shroud of macerated pepper, dense fruit but still an old world minerality. Very very good. — 4 years ago

#1000 at home, finally!

This is big, broad and bold. Hundred percent cab aged in seventy-five percent new French Oak. Limited production to just over two hundred cases.

Visibly the wine is a deep ruby color with a tight rim.

The nose is intense with dark fruit, cassis, coffee, dark chocolate, but also earthy humid forest aromas.

The mouthfeel is luxurious and enveloping with the perfectly ripe dark fruit, just a touch of dried spices, vanilla, oak, and a long savory earthy finish. The wine is dry, full bodied, ultra smooth with round but persistent tannings with medium plus alcohol and medium acidity.

Absolutely love wine… Cheers all! — 3 years ago

More impressive than the last tasting in August this year. Raspberry, strawberry and other red fruits and a hint of clove. A lovely fresh spicy nose. A light weight plus palate showing sour cherry, muted acid finishing with very fine tannins. Phillip Jones showing his skill with a grape other than Pinot Noir or Chardonnay. Good to drink now or in the next 12 months. — 4 years ago
