The wine is produced from only the top 20-25% of Cabernet fruit available from Wynns Coonawarra Estate. One sip, you're in. Another seductive Black Label - its 63rd vintage - and it's a wow. Excellent vintage conditions have no doubt helped, but this Australian icon doesn't need a lot of assistance outside its trio of long-time 'curators': Sue Hodder, Allen Jenkins and Sarah Pidgeon. Masses of blackberry fruits, a touch of black olive savouriness, stewed rhubarb, violets. Casts a wide net across the palate with sustained black fruits and spice, but also notes of coffee grounds, bay leaf and vanilla. Oak enhances, yet keeps itself in the background. Drink to: 2041; Alcohol: 13.7%; Rating: 96 Points & Special Value Star; Jeremy Oliver A pristine, stylish Coonawarra cabernet of medium to fullish weight. Scented with violets, cassis, mulberries, dark plums and fresh cedar/chocolate oak, it’s long, elegant and firmish, with a wonderful drive of sumptuous flavour tightly wound around a finely balanced, gravelly spine. Underpinned by a suggestion of mint, it’s just beginning to reveal some of the complexity it will certainly deliver over the very log term. Drink to: 2038-2048+; Rating: 95 Points (18.7); Value: $44.95 Wynns Black Label Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 | Wynns Coonawarra Estate Plantagenet Shiraz 2013, Great Southern, Western Australia 92 John Szabo, MS Dense and concentrated, this is evidently serious wine off the top, maturing slowly, with billowing black fruit, black currant and black 4 pepper in an engaging and satisfying ensemble, highlighting the coolish climate in the ocean-influenced region of Great Southern in Western Australia. Tannins are broad and velvety, contained and supported by lively natural acids, while length and depth are very good to excellent. Bold and satisfying, complex and drinking well now, though no rush either. Tasted September 2020. Value: $39.95 Vineyards - Plantagenet Wines Stratus Cabernet Franc 2017, VQA Niagara On The Lake, Ontario 92 David Lawrason Stratus has a great handle on this variety, consistently one of the best in Niagara. This is a very fine pointed cabernet franc with classic well integrated aromas of raspberry, caraway, tobacco, anise and subtle vanillin. It is medium-full bodied, quite elegant although youthfully tannic with wood resin on the finish. The length is excellent. Give this about three years. Tasted October 2020 Value - $39.20 Stratus Cabernet Franc 2017 – Products – Stratus (stratuswines.com) Tenuta San Guido Le Difese 2018, Igt Toscana (Tuscany), Italy 91 David Lawrason This is the "third' label of Tenuta San Guido, better known as the producer of Sassicaia, one of Italys' most expensive wines. This is also cabernet based, and in this hotter vintage it is showing almost plummy ripeness, with hints of licorice, cedar and vanillin, all very nicely integrated. It is medium weight, very well balanced with some charm and fruit, yet a web of fine tannin, alcohol and acid as well. The length is excellent. Best 2022 to 2028ish John Szabo, MS San Guido's 2018 Le Difese is a lovely, perfumed, very pretty and refined wine, well-balanced on the mid-weight scale, juicy-fruity, earthy and savoury, an appealing mix. Tannins are nicely refined, and acids are plump and ripe but juicy, and length is very good. This is your entry 5 point to high-end Tuscan wines at a very attractive price. Lovely stuff. Tasted January 2021. Value: $37.95 Tenuta San Guido - Le Difese Marchand Tawse Bourgogne Côte D'or Pinot Noir 2018, Ac Burgundy, France 91 Michael Godel Once again the relatively new appellation Bourgogne Côte d’Or (established in 2017) is employed and my goodness this Marchand- Tawse pinot noir is a concentrated and swarthy example of that. Fruit is from both sides of the Bourgogne Mason-Dixon line, as per the appellation which allows for both Beaune and Nuits fruit for classification. The Nuits is Prémeaux plus Marsannay and then Côtes de Beaune. There is this Nuits-St.-Georges feeling that you just can’t shake. Rich to nearly decadent with that swarm of volatile compounds and delicious stemmy-ness (likely some whole bunch inclusion) that raises the bar, the game and the hunter’s gaminess of this wine. There are many who will love the wild, unfettered side of Bourgogne Côte d’Or. Drink 2021-2025. Tasted November 2020. Sara d'Amato Offering impressive darkness and concentration, this rich and rather ripe pinot noir from the Côte d'Or has the intensity of Pommard but the aromatics of Volnay. A pleasurable dichotomy. Well-structured and deftly crafted with very good length. Value - $33.95 Bourgogne Cote d'Or Pinot Noir | Marchand-Tawse (marchand- tawse.com) Bleasdale Frank Potts 2016, Langhorne Creek, South Australia 92 David Lawrason This is a five grape "Bordeaux" blend from the company that founded viticulture in the maritime Langhorne Creek area of South Australia. It is big, rich yet composed cabernet-based red (50%) with a generous nose of blackberry, cassis, black rose, tobacco and fine oak enhancement. It is very stylish and complete, without artifice. The balance is very good, with youthful tannin still in the mix. The length is 6 excellent to outstanding. A glimpse into one of the planet's tiny, perfect cabernet regions. Michael Godel Bleasdale’s Frank Potts is the Bordeaux foray in which all five varieties take on Langhorne Creek for one of that region’s most aromatic wines. Sort of like a 180 year-old, five-pronged ode to the man who set up shop back in 1850. Solid construct and controlled conjecture both satiny and understated at the same time. Judicious barrel usage hides behind the purple-cimmerian fruit of pulchritudinous perfume. Another Frank Potts to slowly evolve and become new again and again over a decade and a half run. Drink 2021-2029. Value: $29.95 Bleasdale Vineyards - Bleasdale Henry Of Pelham Baco Noir Old Vines 2019, Ontario 91 David Lawrason This is a really lovely wine - ripe, smooth, balanced, avoiding sweetness, and bringing out the best of baco's plummy/blackberry fruit. Oak is not too heavy, smoky and chocolaty, leaving more delicate fruit and floral notes to prevail. Nor is baco's wilder, meaty side very obvious, although present and accounted for along with some tobacco. It is medium-full bodied with fresh almost juicy acidity, moderate alcohol (13.5%) and fine-grained tannin. Well structured, balanced and textured, with very good to excellent length. Value: $19.95 Our Wines | Henry of Pelham Cave Spring Blanc De Blancs Brut Sparkling, VQA Beamsville Bench, Niagara Peninsula, Ontario 91 David Lawrason This wine is the flagship for Cave Spring's increasingly important sparkling wine focus, which now involve This wine is the flagship for Cave Spring's increasingly important sparkling wine focus, which now involves four labels. It won a Lieutenant-Governor's Award in 2012. 7 This 100% chardonnay was aged for three years, building subtle almond complexity into the dried apple, lemon and shortbread aromas. It is light-bodied, lively, gentle, delicate and a touch sweet, yet built on a beam of mineral acidity. There's excellent length on the finish. This is a terrific blanc de blanc. Value: $29.95 Wine Details | Cave Spring Cellars Château D'aquéria Tavel 2019, Ac, Rhone, France 91 Michael Godel One of Tavels’s arch classic Rosés, built sturdier than most and of a hue that stands out as being only from this very particular appellation. This is sort that pairs well with Hemingway and protests, cerebral company and food that can stand up to the bold flavours it supplies.

  • 2004 Plantagenet Great Southern Cabernet Sauvignon
    2004 PLANTAGENET GREAT SOUTHERN CABERNET SAUVIGNON WINEMAKER: John Durham REGION: Grown on the 37-year-old Wyjup vineyard in Western Australia’s Great Southern region VARIETALS: Cabernet Sauvignon MATURATION: 24 months in French oak ALCOHOL: 14.0% alc/vol VINTAGE REPORT: The 2004 vintage in the Great Southern region of Western Australia was characterized by consistent, mild temperatures with a notable absence of harsh or inclement weather, allowing the fruit to ripen slowly and consistently. The season began late and concluded later than usual, resulting in fruit of elegant structure, bright acidity and fresh, vibrant fruit characters. WINEMAKING: Fruit for the 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon was hand harvested, crushed and fermented, with extended maceration carried out in potter fermenters for between 1 and 4 weeks. During this time the wine was pumped over twice daily to gain maximum colour and tannin extraction. Maturation for 24 months in months in French oak followed, with racking every 6 months. TASTING NOTES: Classic Cabernet aromas of blackberry, currant and ripe plums are evident with a hint of thyme and sage, alongside bottle-age derived notes of cigar box and vanilla. The elegant palate offers a silky texture with complex layering of ripe wild berries and cassis, beautifully balanced tannins and a persistent lingering finish. CRITICAL ACCLAIM: 90 pts James Halliday, 90 pts Stephen Tanzer, 90 pts Wine Enthusiast ABOUT PLANTAGENET: An historic producer, Plantagenet Wines was the first winery to be established in Western Australia’s Great Southern wine region. Named after the local Shire of Plantagenet, the winery was founded in 1968 when English immigrant Tony Smith identified the potential of these wild and remote lands by planting vines on his Mount Barker property.
