Purchase: $13.99 from GetWinesDirect Nose: Berries and hint of dust, smokey vanillan oak. Palate: Rich fruits and supple texture. Chocolatey middle, and slightly tart finish. Out of 10: 8 Value: Good
Purchase: $60 from Cellar Door Nose: Rich Berry fruit with a layer of dustiness. Palate: This is a big rich wine that will have no problem alongside your meal yet is balanced enough to enjoy on its own. You will enjoy the ripe and generous flavours of chocolate and coffee. A lovely velvety texture and lingering finish. Drinking well now! Out of 10: 9 Value: OK
Purchase: ~$20 from Cellar Door Nose: Jammy bouquet, candy floss. Palate: Fruity initial sweetness then a peach ice tea (likely due to age) and marmalade stickiness. Fresh acid to finish. Out of 10: 8 Value: Good
