Blackwell Barossa Shiraz 2019

Very good Barossa Shiraz with silky tannins, Blackberry flavours with hint of mocha and chocolate
Opens up well with a long finish. Less oak is noticeable a positive development👍 — 25 days ago

I agree with @Michael Meyer that this is a quintessential BBQ wine. Some braised roasted meat, beef bouillon and iron to pair with pork shoulder. Would have performed better if it wasn't butting heads with the La Mordoree.

I’ve owed Delectable some posts for a while now....and we need community now more than ever and Delectable has always been a positive, supportive community...so I’m jumping back in. I’m about 300 wines behind but I’m going to work backward starting with the wines I’ve enjoyed the last few weeks during this period of relative isolation. I’m calling this series “Loving Wine in the Time of Corona” as a nod to my boy Gabriel Garcia Marquez who was also a big time wine guy......this bottle is from our first Zoom tasting with the local wine group @romo @Steve Anderson @Michael Meyer @Matthew Beckman @Vickie Beuerle @Dan Blackwell on 3/14. Pinot theme. The Meo was youthful and pure, so much depth, concentration and lively red fruit. Good times with great people. — 5 years ago

Why is uploading multiple wines important?

Antonio Galloni

@romo some people find it easier to upload multiple images and notes at once. Especially if you taste a bunch of wines together, in one setting

Bill Bender

Yes it’s far superior than the old days of loading each photo individually @Antonio Galloni 🙏

Clear, stony, metallic anjou pears. A good wine friend died last night in Paris. He was a dependable member of our San Diego tasting group visiting his first grandchild and we are struggling with our collective loss. @Alec White loved Bordeaux, good cheese and #sauternes. Hug your kids and your parents this week. @Dan Blackwell @Vickie Beuerle @Max Kogod @Matthew Beckman @Bill Bender @Steve Anderson @Jason Berry @Michael Meyer — 8 years ago

A sad day. He will certainly be missed, but will always be remembered.

Thank you @romo for recognizing @Alec White he was an intelligent, comfortable, compassionate soul and his passing was such a shock. I can only hope that he was able to enjoy one last glass of Bordeaux when he was in France. Cheers to him and the many positive memories he gave us 🍷
