First Drop Wines The Red One 2008/09 Australia 750ml (160485)
|
Cellar/Tasting Notes
This vibrantly violet red wine contains a bouquet of red berry fruits of the Shiraz, which are highlighted by the varietal blackcurrant and eucalyptus lift of the Cabernet Sauvignon. The palate expresses beautifully, the consummation fleshy, rich fruit of the Shiraz and the majestic structure of the Cabernet Sauvignon, with light undertones of the nervy Barbera.

Winner's Tank Shiraz Langhorne Creek 2008 South Australia 750ml (160086)
| WA: 90 |
|
Cellar/Tasting Notes
Always a great buy and a great value! Rich and full
with plum, black cherry and blueberry fruit. Inky purple. Exotically perfumed aromas of fresh blackberry, mulberry and mocha, accented by violet and sandalwood. Lush, impressively sweet dark berry flavors verge on jammy but maintain energy thanks to lively minerality. Fine-grained tannins build on the long, juicy finish. Extremely impressive for the price and utterly delicious right now.
Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate (WA): 90
"Always a great buy and a great value! Rich and full with plum, black cherry and blueberry fruit."

Cockfighter's Ghost Semillon 2008 Hunter Valley 750ml (160402)

|
Steven Tanzer (IWC): 89
"The 2008 Semillon from Hunter Valley is light straw-colored with attractive mineral and melon aromatics. Light in body, vibrant and with a good core of savory fruit, it will pair well with raw bar over the next 2-3 years."

D'Arenberg Custodian Grenache 2006 McLaren Vale 750ml (160087)
|
Cellar/Tasting Notes
As a young wine, The Custodian shows a dark ruby-purple color, and distinctive rich, ripe, lifted plum, cherry and deep blackcurrant aromas, on top of earthy, spicy, violet, musk and raspberry smells - the essences of Grenache. Touches of white pepper, tobacco, cinnamon and spice follow onto the full-bodied juicy palate. The rich plum and sweet blackberry fruit flavors are lifted by gentle vanillin and coffee-mocha oak derived flavors, as well as crunchy, fine-grained fruit and mineral tannins.

A blend of Semillon, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. Fruity, crisp and quite full with a mineralic edge and a hint of reduction. The palate is crisp and fresh with nice fruitiness. A brightly fruited style with lots of personality.

Steven Tanzer (IWC): 89
"Light yellow. Vibrant aromas of lemon, grapefruit, anise and minerals. Graceful, tightly wound citrus and green apple flavors are complemented by a deeper note of honeydew, with tangy acidity adding cut. I like this wine's energy and finishing precision."

The Cycle Buff Beauty, a tale of escape. How two exquisite beauties escape the clutches of heathen hands that would have otherwise squeezed all the life from their precious bodies.
