9.1

Lovely Pinot noir that’s more rustic and less fruity in taste than other Californian producers but it’s a good wine to enjoy on its own or with some nice roast ham.
Overtones do have some plum and light fruits so it will tickle those tastebuds.

This wine is not to be underestimated. Deep complex flavours that stun for the value .
Plum overtones, smooth and long lingering overtones that are not harsh in tannins.
A delight to drink on its own and with tapas, bolognaise and rich meats

2019 limestone coast Shiraz. I decided to try this as they speak highly of themselves and say it’s bold and powerful.
I disagree as it’s not oozing with anything that stands out from any other low market shiraz. Lacks punch and did not hit the mark for me. Maybe a difficult harvest but greater flavours are needed.

The welsh would call it Lush - it’s full of great flavour and is deep in currants and vanilla overtones.
Good legs and stands out. Impressed.

A superb find and I usually call against the choice of a design to inspire your selection yet this label stood out and I wanted to give it a try. Not disappointed as this has some fantastic flavours long lingering currant overtones and a delightful zing that stays. Try this on its own or with powerful meats and cheeses, trust me you won’t regret it. — 4 years ago

A surprisingly decent chianti, deeper flavours than expected and there is still that earthy flavour expected yet with more plum and floral overtones. — 4 years ago

It’s a deep earthy Shiraz that has a tart tannin and the flavours come in the aftertaste rather on the nose and start.
A decent SA Shiraz for the money.

8.9

A fairly decent Pinot Noir that you can smell the earthy notes and youth in the grapes. The bottle suggest leathery and vanilla yet it’s more a fresh berry fruits overtone with earthy lingering flavour. Let it breath and maybe age longer to get more from it.
Good value and worth trying.

Smooth and good lingering taste. Especially good and not overpowering.
I can see why it got a gold medal as it exceeds expectations. Will be having more ;)

9.2

A lighter shiraz than expected yet great length of flavour, due in part to the tannin being smooth.
Decent berries and a light milk chocolate in the tasting it’s a nice wine with pasta/pizza, roasts, cheese or on its own
