See previous notes for the 2006 Stonewell. Supple and smooth showing masses of plum and blackberry from old vine Barossa Shiraz. Aniseed/liquorice notes. A certain astringency to finish off. A good but not great Stonewell. I could have left drinking this until its 20th year next year but I don’t think it would be any different. — a day ago

Spicy with a good body and nice tannin finish. Lovely blend. Needed some airing but then progressed very quickly. — 9 months ago

Down to the sea in ships!
Nuts, Olives w brine, baking yeast, a saline delight. Always consistent.
On a 80° early evening, with ersatz Spanish food. Cod in orange and smoked paprika, leftover paella, asparagus…
A winner. Love it. — 2 years ago

This wine has a burnished look, deep brown. The nose is a treat all on its own. There are aromas of brown sugar, coffee and orange zest which combine for an amazing olfactory experience. The palate is just as joyful, with caramel, raisin and mocha notes. The acidity is fresh and exhilarating. Although the wine is described on the label as “cream,” it does not strike me as creamy. The viscosity is nice, though. It will pair well with dessert, or serve as one by itself. — a year ago

Wine dinner at Marble + Rye. Sensational wine every time. Great with blue cheese panna cotta, stoppages, smoked almond, and candied prosciutto. — 5 months ago

From MM's private cellar since she buys everything she gets. Smells like a sherry with almonds and citrus, light on the palate but with texture, and still some acid along with all the almondy goodness.

One of the great treasures in the world of sweet wine. And so affordable for what it is. — 3 years ago
