“Rarely seen made on its own, Mourvèdre usually plays a supporting role in a blend of grapes. Here, however, it shines. Complex, spicy, fruity and developed, it's got it all. Bit of a bruiser, but charming, characterful and impressive.”
“Big, bruising and bloody delicious. Everything cranked up to 11 in the best possible way. Drink it now with a couple of hours to breathe or squirrel it away for 5-10 years, either's fine by us! you will not be disappointed.”
“A beautifully mature Washington State Merlot from Seven Hills winery that gives flavours of plum, dark berries, mushroom, aniseed and has fresh acidity. An awesome food-friendly wine that has enough structure to cut through plenty of protein. Decant this to see the fruit flavours increase over time.”
“Serious Sangiovese from Chianti that avoids the constraints of 'Classico' for all the right reasons. Red and black fruits, silky smooth, and with surprisingly low tannin, this is pretty unique winemaking. Properly delicious.”
“Many great things have been claimed about the 2014 vintage in Napa. Fortunately, this wine stands up to scrutiny. Dark rich fruit? Check. Big, silky tannins? Check. Smokey, leathery development? Check. Acidity that keeps everything bright and moreish? Check. First-rate Cali Cab? You betcha.”
“A classic and sleek, top-drawer Bordeaux blend from Napa & Sonoma counties. This gives perfectly ripe blackcurrant aromas alongside, leather, old fireplace, cooling eucalyptus, coffee and pencil shavings. The whole experience is so harmonious with fresh acidity, perfect fruit and grip. As tasted in 2022 this is drinking very well now but has plenty of ageing potential.”
“Herb Lamb Vineyards have crafted an excellent Cabernet suavignon that has just the right balance of fresh and baked fruit flavours. Smart vineyard and winery techinique result in a red wine with plenty of grunt but that is still bright and fresh. You'll be able to find flavours and aromas of cassis, braised beef, pencil shavings, clove, vanilla, tobacco and smoke. Rich, bright, brilliant and complex.”
“It's an honour to have this mature vintage of Rudd Estate Red. This is very much coming to its peak now and is velvety smooth on the way down. It has plenty of rich berry fruit, violets, cinnamon, clove, vanilla, cedar and old leather-bound books to name but a few. A seriously serious and scarce red Bordeaux blend from one of Oakville's finest vineyards. A bottle to get lost in.”
