Clarendon Hills Astralis Syrah 2005

At the top of the pyramid is the 2005 Syrah Astralis Vineyard. It is sourced from a vineyard planted in 1920 and is one of the Syrah cuvees in which 100% new oak is utilized (along with Brookman, Hickinbotham, and Piggott Range). It delivers an ethereal bouquet of smoky oak, violets, espresso, black pepper, blueberry, and blackberry liqueur. Densely packed and tightly wound, all it needs is time. The wine is totally harmonious, impeccably balanced, and exceptionally long. When it fully unwinds, even my high rating will appear conservative. Its only competition comes from the likes of Guigal, Chapoutier, Chave, Krankl, and Ringland

Clonakilla Shiraz Viognier 2010 put this in a blind tasting with top–end CoteRotie wines of the Rhone Valley and it would be a bargain, easily outpointing wines costing far more. Light, bright crimson-purple; a highly fragrant bouquet of red fruits and subtle spices leads into a medium-bodied palate; here more savoury characters join the fruit, lengthening the finish. Drink to 2025

Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon 1999 (MLD) he wine has a deep brick red colour and its condition is brilliant. On the nose it is very complex. The primary fruit aromas are the typically Moss Wood redcurrants and mulberries but with additional pretty aromas like cherry and red jubes. These lively aromas seem to be the product of the mild growing season. There are also notes of coffee beans and chocolate and an earthy or olive-like note. The oak is soft and well balanced, giving a toasty background.

Clonakilla Shiraz Viognier 2004

Clonakilla Shiraz Viognier 2004.Spotlessly clean, lifted black cherry/blackberry and spice aromas, together with the unmistakable tang of Viognier; silky soft tannins, very good balance and length. (06-Oct-2005)� 95 points, James Halliday.It has been a remarkable journey for Clonakilla. When John Kirk planted the first vines in 1971 he had no idea that his vineyard would one day be celebrated as one of the best in the country. Along the way there have been trials and tribulations as well as moments of unprecendented success.

Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon 1995 Classically complex, perfumed bouquet of briary cassis and mulberries, dark olives and cedary oak, with a suggestion of Amarone-like dried plum fruit. Super-ripe and velvet smooth, it’s powerful and massively concentrated, with flavours of black fruits and dark olives wrapped around a firm cut of slightly kernel-like tannins.

Very balanced; nothing untoward sticking out

Chateau Montrose 2003 The blend in 2003 was 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Merlot (a very high percentage), 3% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot. The wine, unlike most 2003s, has a freshness and liveliness provided by their extraordinary terroir. This wine can be drunk now. It has a dense bluish/purple color to the rim and an extraordinary nose of blueberries and mulberries, with blacker cassis and blackberry entering the picture
