Nice and full bodied for a Grenache — 10 years ago
This is actually a really interesting wine, it's a supplier sample and I dare say we will be selling this very soon.
It's the 2013 Duke's Magpie Hill Reserve Sparkling Riesling, yes, Riesling. The nose is an initial burnt toast with a clear secondary of Maple Syrup, whaaat? The palate is acidic and very citrusy so it doesn't follow the nose, but I really like it. The finish is short, sharp and acidic, this would go so well as a refreshing finish to a Friday! 😜 — 11 years ago

Tasted in 2011 and 2013. This is evolving into a beautiful wine. The oak is quite forward on the nose but the rich dark fruits shine through on the palate with pepper and anise on the finish. Drinking very well now but good for another 3 to 4 years. — 10 years ago
Surprised me! Rich, chewy wine with a great nose. My only negative was the amount of tannin left behind on the finish. I wonder if a little more age would help? This is a huge Red. — 11 years ago
Nice solid red. Agree with other feedback about oaky taste — 11 years ago
Slight oak, lanolin & rich floral scents on nose, oak & butteriness on palate balanced w fresh acidity. Rich stone fruit & grapes. Nice pairing w fresh school prawns — 12 years ago
