• Mount Pleasant Old Paddock & Old Hill Shiraz 2005

  
  The Wine Front — Authority: 148
  This is a stunning red, made from some of the region’s most historically important vineyards. The review comes from the 2009/10 edition of The Big Red Wine Book (it being Mattinsons transliteration of my note). Referring to my spreadsheet (The Source) reveals that I scored it one point less, but with a plus sign - ...

  Noon’s Eclipse has traditionally been made using old vine grenache and shiraz from the Noon vineyard at McLaren Vale. This release marks a slight change of direction, with a small amount of estate cabernet and bush vine graciano now included in the blend. The blend wasn’t broke but personally, on the strength of ...

• Hungerford Hill Shiraz 2008

  
  The Wine Front — Authority: 148
  This could easily be a fabulous wine. It’s a lesson in oak for the moment so whether that oak settles (and integrates) or becomes more overt, will be the $35 question.You need a subscription to The Wine Front to see this part of the post

• Saltram No.1 Shiraz 2005

  
  The Wine Front — Authority: 148
  The 2004 was rated at eighty-nine points in last year’s Big Red Wine Book (2008/9) – so we don’t always love this wine (though Walsh liked the 2004 far more than Mattinson). It can be lumbered with excessive oak flavour. You need a subscription to The Wine Front to see this part of the post

• Some young punks - Passion has red lips 2008

  
  Wino sapien — Authority: 124
  South Australia. Cabernet sauvignon (54%), Shiraz (46%). Screwcap. Approx $A25. Seductive at first, with spice, dark chocolate and blackberries. Lush, sweet and creamy, like a wet kiss, this is rounded and plump with seemingly no hardness. Later on, reality and oxygen play their part and the nose takes on a ...

• Moroccan Spiced Tenderloin with Honeyed Shiraz

  
  Choosy Beggars — Authority: 123
  Folks, I have come to terms with the vicious dichotomy that I am a cooking purist who really likes short cuts and taking the easy way out.  At times I wonder if I’m maybe just a bit of a culinary “cheater”, but I just don’t think that a special dinner with high quality food needs to take 3 days and 17 steps ...

• Double Take: The Story Wines “Wilderness” Grampians Shiraz 2008

  
  The Wine Front — Authority: 148
  Walsh: I think “Wilderness” refers to Rory Story’s coming out of it and into full time wine production. He’s usually a medium bearded man, which suits the wilderness, and appropriately this is only just medium bodied - and very fresh - an early picked style I guess - with boysenberry and cranberry fruit, some ...
