Balnaves of Coonawarra

Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

3/6.5/9.5 = 19 out of 100 say 94.5
Great vintage 2010 - very strong., great mouthfeel, long linger. Mint with tobacco, strong acid structure and still plenty of tannins. Will go at least 3-5 years more.

A Tribute to Grace Wines

Hofer Vineyard Grenache 2022

Pretty great. I feel like it could use more time in bottle. A couple hours of air and it was cherries, dust, strawberries, white pepper, a hint of jalapeño, maybe red apple with baking spice. So lovely. — 4 months ago

South Ridge Paso Robles Syrah 2022

Deep red color. Smells of rose petals and musky rose aroma. Flavors of licorice and smoke. Dense and a little strange. Lovely. Tasted blind. — a month ago

Bel-Air Red Bordeaux Blend 2004

A little long in the tooth. Colour a deeper yellow than a younger example. Nose is subtle ( read limited) interesting on the palate. Pleasant with a medium long finish. — 4 months ago

Penley Estate

Phoenix Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Taking a nip for the rating. For $12 or so this works just fine. Enjoyable and no complaints. Maybe 13 years helped. — a month ago

Bowen Estate

Estate Grown Coonawarra Shiraz 2018

Another great value red from Coonawarra - this from Bowen Estate. I paid $27.50 at the cellar door in 2021. Their excellent Cabernet Sauvignon was the same price. In earlier days this Cuvée showed cooler climate characteristics of white pepper - not evident in this bottle. This shows more spice, red berries and black olives. Just a medium weight palate and obviously great QPR. Interestingly in the early days of Coonawarra, Shiraz was more planted than Cabernet Sauvignon - it’s the reverse these days. — 3 months ago
