Nice wines I have drunk recently - Red or White

[Daver6]

Are you posting TN here or on auswine? I am keen to hear how the Rockford was, and where it sat with its peers.
I tried the ‘15 at the CD and loved it, I also have some ‘16 but haven’t tried it yet

Notes are up Grand Cru Tasting Group (Perth) - Grenache and blends - The Auswine Forum

Rockford Dry Country Grenache 2016 (Barossa) 14.1% alc. Crimson in colour. There’s prominent red fruits on the nose, along with meaty and leather notes. There’s also some “Cherry Ripe” and dried herbs. The palate has high tannins and prominent acid, and overall, the wine is quite complex. Highly regarded by the group.

For those with a bunch of cellarone dollars I grabbed 3 of these and am quite happy. A tad riper than some chardonnay but holds up well with a bit of a chill.

I did GIYF before and it showed "Not available" or "out of stock". Guess I will just some here in Manila before I get back later this month. It's about $35 a bottle compared to indicative prices of around $60 in OZ

 

[Daver6]

It's been unusually humid in Perth. You can see how quickly condensation has formed on the bottle and glass. Oh...the wine is pretty darn good too

 

[JohnM]

Still going...

All stunning.

Phwoar!....

CellarTracker tells me I have a bottle in the cellar of that. Guess who I won't be sharing it with?
