Fabulous layers of silky tannins burst onto the palate with rich berry flavours
Consistently rated highly (97 & 98 pts) by Western Australian specialists it is probably little known outside Australia.
It’s from Franklin River and not the better known Margaret River region.
Named after the winemaker responsible for 51 vintages of this masterpiece it’s a testament to his craftsmanship.
The 2021 is James Halliday’s Australian wine of 2025.
I think this is better.

Absolutely fabulous is this 8 yr old Pinot.
This bottle is no. 1150 of 2353.
Mature with brick hue and nose of mature brambles, sometimes you just know you have your hands on something special and you know it won’t be repeated any time soon
So nice — 2 months ago
A good value Bordeaux blend which has s a good cellar defender mid week and you not ready open something with some age,
It’s made to drink young and doesn’t pretend to be competing with top Cabernet from Margaret River — 25 days ago
Well rated by WS and Antonio Galloni (93pts) the punters are not convinced but I think its very good 👍

Nice bold Barossa Shiraz, not cheap at about $US 100, and has been tucked away for some years. Quite dark showing dark and red fruits on nose and palate and a bold fruit forward Oz Shiraz
