 | D'ARENBERG SOUTH AUSTRALIA 2008 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 2008 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.

 | CLONAKILLA O'RIADA 2007 SHIRAZ
"It's different to the flagship Clonakilla shiraz-viognier. Stalkier, meatier. It's also from a very good red (Canberra) vintage. It's an easy-going mid-weight in terms of intensity and it has lots of toasty, meaty, sappy influences...it's cherried and spicy, smoky and very fine through the finish. It's a wine where the flavours seem to have been picked up and placed into the wine with care and deliberation. It needs more time to grow more comfortable within its own skin, but I have no doubt of its quality - within its style. Rated: 94 Points
