Super smooth Shiraz From WA.
Definitely in its drinking window.

Have to agree with you there. An excellent wine.

I was lucky to have picked this up for around $15 (long story) and a glass or two went down really well with a t-bone done on the Weber.

Having the same one tonight!

The cork is cheap and bad but the wine is very good

The Ette loved this - me not so much - won't dip in again

Exquisite CS and an absolute bargain for the price.

Winding down with a glass of classic MR CS

Really enjoyed this Preservative Free Grenache from Yangarra.
A drink now style, it is soft and smooth with a nice perfumed nose. I couldn't detect any tannins. It went very well with a medium rare scotch fillet done on the Weber.

Very fruity light red, tasting like a PN.

Thinking of 4-5 days in the Hunter Valley mid May. Been 20+ years since last visit. Looking for recommendations for wineries and dinners. Probably staying at Chateau Elan or Spicers.

Highly recommend Bistro Molines for lunch

I can’t be much help but can suggest trying the wines at Vinden estate. I’ve met the owner / winemaker, who is doing some interesting wines as well as the traditional hunter stalwarts.

Tulloch is good but it depends if they let you taste the good stuff like Hector.

If I mention your names would that help?

When staying in Bathurst over night you may as well try a local wine.
A beautiful nose; berries, herbaceous, juniper maybe. Soft tannins with a long finish. You can taste the fruit, it's delicious. I'm glad I chose this wine.
