Very dark crimson purple. Nearly opaque. Explosive aromas of blackberry, graphite, and spring flowers. Really blossoms with air. The wine enters smoothly, displaying plenty of black and blue fruit with a note of violet. Quite suave and sophisticated on the palate with caressing tannins on the finish. A beautifully balanced cool-climate Syrah that has a long, long life ahead of it. Optimum drinking should be 2015 to 2025.

All-mountain is Alec's favorite kind of cycling and it best describes this deliciously complex blend of 70% Syrah, 25% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. Heading up trail the air is heavy with wild blueberry, violets, and oak forest aromas. Dropping into descent, deep chutes of blue-black fruit consume a full 160mm of fork travel. Picking up speed the palate turns lively and technical with youthful acidity and some tight twists through the trees. Mocha and espresso bean flavors kick in just as you glide through the dust to a fine chocolaty finish.

Deep purple colour. This wine possesses a complex bouquet of red berries, cedar, mint, tobacco, espresso and chocolate. This wine displays a soft coating texture; the rich fruit drives straight across the palate displaying a medium to full bodied intensity. Flavours of cloves, chocolate and lifted purple fruits mingle with the unobtrusive oak.

St Henri is rich and plush when young, gaining soft, earthy, mocha-like characters as it ages. It is matured in old, 1460-litre vats that allow the wine to develop, imparting minimal, if any oak character. Although a small proportion of Cabernet is sometimes used to improve structure, the focal point for St Henri remains Shiraz.

Aromas of blackberry, licorice, chocolate, mint, leather and coconut ice. Obvious but very seductive in an X-rated sweet shop kind of way. On the palate full bodied with juicy berry, licorice all sorts, chocolate and leather flavors backed with plenty of cedary vanilla oak. It has firm dry slightly chunky tannins with good fresh acid to balance. Almost elegant really. Finishes dry and savory with excellent length of flavor. Highly Recommended!

This wine is big & thick, coating the entire palate and has amazing length. The flavors are all dark fruits with a burst of chocolate and liquorice, moving evenly from entry through the mid to late palate. The tannins remain fruit filled throughout, resulting in a soft and rewarding end palate leaving a lingering generous mouth-feel.

Always a favorite among the staff, this shows the best of both Barossan Shiraz and Cabernet. Beautiful intense cassis with spice box and tobacco leaf. The fine chalky tannins of the Cabernet are perfectly complimented by the luscious fleshy texture of the Shiraz. Medium to full bodied showing rich blackcurrant fruit with a restrained elegance that begs for food with deep earthy flavors.

This 2007 vintage is exceedingly dark in color with rich, silky, wild raspberry fruit flavors laced with pepper, tar, and herb tones. Aromas are raspberry, smoky, wild gamey, peppery, and cinnamon. The wine has a clean purity of Syrah fruit that is reminiscent of many St. Joseph’s and other Northern Rhônes. It has full forward fruit and great acid balance. It is very smooth and creamy in the mouth.

The finished wine is full of lavender, underbrush spice, dark berries,and road tar, with a faint floral element from the Roussane. It is wonderfully balanced and has great aging potential. Play up this Syrah’s spice with aromatic herb/spice rubs on grilled/roasted meat. Marinade, then grill/roast red fleshed food like beef, lamb, tuna or game. And of course,there is always American barbecue-like a Carolina pulled-pork sandwich. Drink now to 2020.

“RWT” stands for “red wine trial,” a prosaic name for a spectacular wine developed in the 1990s and launched with the 1997 vintage. A nose of elevated and finessed perfumed high notes a la RWT! The palate is balanced and full-bodied with a silken, lush, "tofu-like" texture, replete with generous, ripe, even yet firm tannins. Flavors of wild-berry fruits, blueberry, boysenberry and loganberry, again verging towards raspberry yoghurt, redefine the "sweet-conserve" descriptor, neither porty nor residual sugarsweet, but lush and (dry red) unctuous.

Attractive aromas of dark red and black fruits such as cherry, dried fig and satsuma plum. The fruit characters are complimented by notes of spice, mocha, roasted coffee beans, dark chocolate and cedar. The 2005 Ares remains true to style with great concentration and density balanced by elegance and restraint. Remaining perfectly balanced, the tannins are silky and refined, the mid palate dense and rich.

Consistently for the last three vintages this wine has been rated 94 points by Wine Spectator and has never been rated lower than a 93. This is always a wine that one can expect to see on the Wine Spectator Top 100 list just about every year! Black to the core, magenta rim notes of cherries plus chocolate, cedar, spice and scorched earth. Very seductive. Dense plums explode onto the palate with spice, subtle chocolate and tar. The fine tannin backbone rolls on and on from the mid palate, surrounded by fresh juiciness, dark fruit and subtle oak.
