D'ARENBERG SOUTH AUSTRALIA 2007 Laughing Magpie Shiraz/ViognierD'ARENBERG SOUTH AUSTRALIA 2007 Laughing Magpie Shiraz/Viognier
LIMITED SUPPLY WE WILL YOUR CONFIRM ORDER
Chester Osborn claims that this is the first blend of Shiraz with a whiff of Viognier to be made in McLaren Vale. "It's a fairly big wine, as D'arenberg wines tend to be, but one that will smooth out with bottle age. Indeed, it is an unusual and interesting wine, derived from reds made famous in the Cote Rotie district of France's Rhone Valley." Robert Mayne, Canberra Times.

d'ARENBERG 2006 LOVE GRASS SHIRAZ- McLaren Vale Sth Australiad'ARENBERG 2006 LOVE GRASS SHIRAZ- McLaren Vale Sth Australia
The Love Grass represents Chesters greatest example of the ‘art of blending’ to date.
While the label does state ‘Shiraz’ small parcels of fruit of other varieties are also included (3% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Merlot, 3% Grenache, 2 % Petit Verdot
2% Tempranillo and 1% Pinot Noir)
The palate is juicy with weighty, red-fruited Shiraz dominated by plums, rhubarb, cherries, strawberries, mulberry, smoked bacon, white pepper and flower characters then a level of black currants and fragrant spice from the Cabernet and Petit Verdot appear. On the second sip a lovely mulberry tar-like character of Merlot starts to fill the palate with vivid, deep-red cherry flavours mixed with a hint of sage leaf, cloves and turmeric from the Petit Verdot which fans out across the finish with a grippy but polished finish.

The 2006 Armagh is dense and purple in colour. It is an elegant and aristocratic kaleidoscope of aromas, an abundance of fruit fl avours; blackberry, mulberry and blueberry with supporting complexity of mint, eucalypt, rhubarb, turkish delight and cinnamon.
The palate is a rich tapestry of enjoyment and fulfilment with flavours of raspberry, strawberry and boysenberry with the closing argument of star anise, rosemary, spearmint and clove. This wine hand crafted with the Jim Barry philosophy to be enjoyed upon release but demands a long sleep in the cellar to allow the wine to demonstrate all that it beholds
