Fat of the Land Shiraz 2006

"From the slurp factory of Barossa," single vineyard from Ebenezer. Lifted nose: milk chocolate, wintergreen, vanilla extract, brambly dark berries. Bright on the palate with rich forest berries, finishes strong with black raspberry tart. In a great place right now! — 12 years ago

Vine Hill Ranch

Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

Decanted for 2 hours. VHR rewards you for the wait. Color is light suggesting a simple body. Body is tall and complex. I savored every drop. A treat. — 12 years ago
