Bin 311 Tumbarumba Chardonnay 2018

Gorgeous. Ripe exotic fruit, but with restraint, and tremendous minerality and focus. At its peak now if you’d ask me. — 19 days ago

Canberra District Shiraz Viognier 2015

Brief notes. Meaty aromas - very savoury. See previous notes re this being Bryan Martin’s private venture while still working at Clonakilla with their Shiraz Viognier being the benchmark in the country. Love this Northern Rhone style wine. I was expecting pepper but got more spice and charcuterie. — 3 years ago

Canberra District Shiraz Viognier 2014

An absolutely alluring nose with cloves, spice, dried meat and a trace of pepper. Barely medium weight on the palate. Barb loved it for that. Very different to Barossa or McLaren Vale Shiraz. Without a doubt the best Shiraz Viognier blend in Australia although Yarra Yering Dry Red No. 2 (with a few other Rhone varieties in the blend) would give it a run for its money. Really very good with a few years to go but pretty much at its peak. — 7 months ago

Premium Riesling 2009

Top shelf Riesling. Aging beautifully. Drank over two days. Love aged Canberra district Riesling. Generally I've found that they need at least a decade to integrate. Balance of citrus fruits and talc. So different from Eden and Clare. This will go another decade easily. — 3 years ago

Gundagai Shiraz 2012

A truly elegant wine: poised, well integrated, concentrated, a balance of dark fruit, cherry, spice, & forest. Nuanced & complex. The last & best bottle of a case. A splendid achievement accomplished under the stewardship of Chris Coffman. Lovely. — 3 years ago
