Dark ruby. Intense dark fruit nose. On the palate notes of cherry, blackberry, plum, hint of vanilla. Nice bold finish with a little spice. This is a really good wine. — 5 years ago

This wine offers a nose of black and blue berries, shoe leather and a hint of black olives. It’s a deep, rich bouquet. The flavors are similarly dark, with berries leading the way again. Black pepper and a nutmeg note also appear, with the fruit staying long on the finish. There is a good tannic structure, easily enough for a steak or beef stew. The oak regimen was nearly all used barrels, so the oak effect is quite nice, not a bit overdone.

Nice flavor, similar to other Molly Dooker wines we’ve had. Jammy with a touch of fruit - had at our home wine tasting - not sure of cost — 7 years ago

9.1

Overall tawny with a mid crimson core. Not as complex as I thought it would be for a 2003 BP Premium. Aromas of Forest floor, Mulch heap with earthy mushroom notes. BP Premiums usually good for 15 years but this faded a little at the end. A lovely wine nevertheless with a long persistence of flavour. — 9 years ago

Great wine for the price, plenty of sweet fruit flavours, high alcohol but not overpowering in the taste, best when a little below red wine serving temperatures. — 11 years ago

Massive is an under-statement. This wine was a Puppy. Many more years of enjoyment left in this wine, I think a minimum of 20 years. Top class Grange and worth the money! 94+ points. — 12 years ago

My vitamin of choice last night 1995 @YarraYering Dry Red No.1 Perfumed, elegant, acid driven. #FilthyOldVino Opulent, juicy red fruit holds it on the knife's edge from being a shade green. Intriguing play on texture, flavour and balance #YarraValley #Wine #Cabernet For more Filthy Old Vino head to http://filthygoodvino.com/from-the-cellar/ — 13 years ago

Inky, bitter chocolate and some mint. Rich and chewy, good wine for a veggie dinner. A second thought did my realise this is a young multi layered wine with lots of aging potential. I is a rich and opulent wine, and it needs air! — 5 years ago

A very dense Ruby in colour. Aromas of coconut oak - very oaky - a match I guess with the ultra ripe red and black fruits - pruney notes. Ultra concentrated McLaren Vale Shiraz writ large! Full bodied and rich - a winter wine par excellence. Medium minus acid. Right to drink this now or the next year or two. This wine was #2 in Wine Spectator’s Top 100 of 2014. A great match with Beef Brisket on a cold night. 16% ABV. — 6 years ago

A nice fruity wine. When you pour into glass, dark fruits and vanila woukd fill your nose. Medium dry. Lack of acidity and tannin. It's suitable for someone who likes sweet or soft taste wine. — 7 years ago

Yarra Yerring delivers for this exceptional vintage. Cote Rotie style blend with power finesse and depth. Well balanced compared to most Australian fruit bombs. Drinks nicely now but can age for very long time. One of the must try Australian red. — 9 years ago

Barnaby and I got this wine as a gift on our 10 year anniversary. We found the perfect night to drink it- after a very long day of harvest work with pizza. It was such a treat. — 11 years ago

I love Dan Standish. He is one of the best winemakers. Lovely wine, very young. Blueberry and Red silky fruit. Full Bodied but not overly alcoholic, heat isn't obvious in this wine. Great length and layers of flavours. Big points from me 95 points. A producer I highly recommend! Typical sweet Barossa fruit, very seductive... — 12 years ago

Deep virtually opaque blackberry shade. Absolutely beautiful with intoxicating aromas of berries, warming spice, bay leaves and black cherries. It’s rich and juicy in the mouth. Drinking beautifully however with patience this wine will be even more amazing 🤩 #sample #opinionsaremyown — 5 years ago

Cassis, Kakao, butter, more presence than others, own character, it feels good, strong and a bit spicy. Ammersee. An honest wine. It can join you in any evening. An amazing wine. A bit bitter in the end. Your gf/bf will fall in love with you if you share it with her/him. A piece of cake. Amazing. — 6 years ago

Red fruits with touches of raspberry and oak on the nose. On the medium weight palate lovely mouthfilling red fruits - the product of old vines with the trademark silky Henschke medium weight Tannins. Always a wonderful wine. The 2006 has. Short term future up to 5 years more. — 7 years ago

This thing must have been nothing but oak on release. It's still very noticeable but the fruit is giving it a good run. Savoury red and black fruits, black olives, herbs and classic Hunter earth. If only there was less oak, this could have been a great wine. I had the same vintage last year which was almost dead but this one had plenty of life left despite the cork crumbling into a million pieces trying to extract. — 9 years ago
