Thought maybe Chapel Hill, The Vicar.. but they are Red Star not Black Star rated. Perhaps Ulithorne Unicus.

But will it give you sanctuary? Must admit I'm curious too....

Edit: just came across this BLACK MARKET DEAL Unmasked – McLaren Vale Shiraz 2014 | Tasting Sessions perhaps the earlier vintage?

Appears to match up.. 75 clams on their site currently...cult like Depeche Mode I think

"it takes just one sip to tast the hand-tended loving that's gone into production" ... as per VM

"Hand Picked, Hand Plunged" as per the Ulithornes website

Haven't previously tried their wines. Any reviews on this (or other) wines of theirs?

 

[AdMEL]

It must be this if we're talking scant information Shop The Collections I haven't had much experience of the Kilikanoon wines so will be interested to hear any comments once you've tried it.

That's the one! Sorry, meant to post link, but was in a hurry and app was not playing nicely, as usual (deleted my post twice, before it actually posted the third time).

The 2014 Unicus had some mixed reviews, I didn't like it and sent mine back. Vintage 2015 down that way was probably a bit better than 2014 though.

Has anyone tasted this new offering of the 2016 CS Blend OR the 2016 Twins Shiraz ?

And here are my tasting notes for the 2016 Twins Cabernet Blend:

Like the 2016 shiraz this is also a wine of great power and intensity, the blackcurrant and blackberry fruit barely approachable, needing a good 4 hour decant to come together. Again there is a touch of sweetness on the attack, but the wine is otherwise very dark and savoury. The mid-palate delivering baking soda, pencil lead and sour-raspberry liquorice. It’s an intriguing flavour profile, but really needs time to integrate. The tannins are fine and lightly drying, leading to a long finish.

Its another of those wines that might be stunning in a few years time, but is really struggling for balance at this early stage. A 90 on CT from me.

Again, many thanks DB

I tossed up the Maverick and the Kilikanoon and went with the latter. It was a Black Market Deal - $13.50 from $45. 2015. Doesn't appear to still be on their website, but it is still available if you call.

Still there and boomed a case. Found nothing on CT or Vivino, well it can't be that bad...I hope.

No worries I sometimes have similar problems with getting stuff posted, especially annoying when you've written quite a loving review and it hasn't auto-saved :-|

if you punch 'Ulithorne' into the search function at the top of the page you'll come up with quite a few hits, I've only had the GSM and was seriously underwhelmed by it....

Any thoughts on today's VIM BM 2015 Shiraz?

Todays VIM? I haven't seen that yet.

Yesterdays VIM BM Shiraz is being discussed in the post before yours and a page back

 

[ehiggo]

Cheers Steady. Mine only game through this morning, so I was thrown a little. Should have read more thoroughly

Just checking there is no search function on the VM site?

Can confirm this as 2015 Kilikanoon Golden Hillside Shiraz from Clare Valley. Great tasting quaffer for $13.50. Suspect would cellar well too.

 

[Dr Ralph]

Suspect would cellar well too.

Only for 7 years according to VM:

Very disappointing, I can't consider it for that reason.

I wouldn't take any notice of the VM BS! Multi vineyard Watervale shiraz made by Kevin Mitchell, 14.5%. Screwcap.
