Rosemount Estate

Tablas Creek Vineyard

Red Rhone Blend 2022

Light but very flavorful. Reminds me of the Australian Rosemount GSM from the 90s. — 2 months ago

Rosemount Estate

Show Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2000

This was showing really nicely considering the age and the fact that it was $7 a bottle in Kearney, Nebraska.
Some fruit remains with oak and a touch of spice leading the charge. Get at this now if you haven’t already.

Shiraz Cabernet 2016

Very pleasent Aussie blend, rich and velvety, ripe blackcurrent, but young, fresh and balanced. OK, some would say it’s a crowd pleaser, but I am part of that crowd. Cheers! — 6 years ago

Philip Shaw

Koomooloo Vineyard N° 11 Orange Chardonnay 2014

Pale Lemon in colour. Some initial caramel notes, light fruited and light weight from the cool climate Orange district. On the palate under ripe nectarine with grapefruit notes - quite a delicate Chardonnay with light acids. Has Medium intensity for Its light palate weight. Philip Shaw has quite the CV as a winemaker. From Chief Winemaker at the huge Lindemans, headhunted by the Oatleys to be Chief Winemaker at Rosemount which became a world wide brand before being sold to Southcorp (now Treasury) for a fortune to the Oatleys, and a stint with Treasury all the while developing his vineyard at Orange now run by his sons and he has gone on to his next venture. He has collected International Winemaker of the Year twice in 1988 and 2000. — 4 years ago

Robert Oatley

Margaret River Chardonnay 2016

An excellent modern rendition of Margaret River Chardonnay. Oak is there but not overpowering blending nicely with the stone fruit. Robert And Sandy Oatley became billionaires when they sold Rosemount to Southcorp (Penfolds and Lindemans) and since then Rosemount hardly exists 😟😟. Anyway this is their new venture on a much smaller scale. Bob Oatley died in 2016 aged 87. Apart from Wine the Oatleys have a huge legacy with ocean yacht racing with “Wild Oats” winning 8 Sydney to Hobart line honours. — 6 years ago

Mountain Blue Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon

‘96 bought through an auction. Always a gamble, but this was well stored. We used to buy this in our early poor days— 3 kids and one nominal salary. Nostalgic purchase that has held up remarkably well. Delicious! — 6 years ago

Rosemount Estate

Hill Of Gold Shiraz 2002

Surprisingly tight on initial pour. Opened up significantly over the first 2 hours to show dark fruit, pepper, vanilla and spice. Nothing particularly funky or meaty. Drinking amazingly well. — 7 years ago
