2016 Moppity Vineyards Shiraz Single Vineyard Quarry BlockHilltops more |
3/6/2024 - graemeg wrote: NRNobleRottersSydney - Hidden Lable Night (Glass Brasserie, Sydney): {screwcap, 12%} [Andrew] More minty-tinged cool-climate fruit here too, but laced with blackberry and gentle oak. Medium weight and clearly maturing, it’s also got a leathery sort of character to it. Soft tannins, low/medium acid. About ready to drop; an good value at sub-$20. |

6/23/2023 - Rote Kappelle Likes this wine: 91 pointsI think this is a little lower on the Moppity snakes and ladders game but in some ways I like it even more than the Single Vineyard from the same year. There is more overt spice and aniseed, the blackberry fruit seems a little fresher. Intensity probably isn't quite at the same level as for the Single Vineyard but the margin isn't great. Very hard to find any flaws and the PQR is higher than a crowd at a Black Oak Arkansas after party. 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

6/19/2023 - Rote Kappelle Likes this wine: 92 pointsWell, well, just when you think you have something pegged, it sometimes happens that you had it pegged alright but in the wrong place. I had pegged this as superior restaurant wine. I think this was right when it was young, but it would be wrong now. |

6/19/2023 - Rote Kappelle Likes this wine: 92 pointsAvid Wino wrote a very accurate note on this and he was prescient when in 2015 he wrote that the best was yet to come and that this was a serious wine at quaffer prices. |

2019 Moppity Vineyards Merlot Lock & Key Single VineyardHilltops more |
5/25/2023 - StewartWent wrote: 88 pointsCheapish merlot doesn't get a lot better than this. Simple, ripe, full, but sensible. Shows very good weight for the region. Classy drying tannin late. Unremarkable perhaps but feels very complete at its station. |

12/21/2021 - AusWineJuan Likes this wine: 91 pointsStunning on day 2. Minty palate, laced with cherry and fruity succulence despite the softer cool climate tone. Lovely dark crimson colour and lingering tannins suggesting solid structure. Let this breathe and reveal its majesty! |

10/24/2021 - graemeg wrote: NR{screwcap, 14%} Ruby red. Youthful nose of cool cabernet; your classic currants, a hint of spearmint, underlying vanilla oak. Fresh palate, very modern and clean, with a menthol character, eucalyptus, black fruits. Low powdery tannins, medium acidity, medium weight, slightly warm finish. Reasonably even on the palate, just-medium length finish. Ok wine for everyday drinking. Not sure cellaring is worth the space though. |

8/15/2021 - graemeg wrote: NR{screwcap, 14%} Garnet red. Fairly muted nose of peat, malt, prune. Some toasty oak character. Definitely maturing, if not at end of plateau. Palate has moderate acid, a twist of sweet blackberry jam, a hint of raisin and fig, low/medium dusty tannins. It’s a touch on the simple side, showing some cold-climate character, with a spearmint undertone. Nice mid-palate presence, dry, but finishes short/medium at best. Drink up. |

6/12/2021 - AndyRoo22 Likes this wine: 85 pointsReceived a bottle as a gift for a significant birthday and mistakenly put it in long term cellaring thinking it was a better wine than it is. Recently discovered it was a cheap red so cracked it open expecting to be able to use it in tonight's bolognaise sauce (at a stretch). |

10/2/2020 - keiran Likes this wine: 95 pointsA deep, rich wine. It has a tight texture and construction like you would expect from cool climate Shiraz, however a big rich flavor of dark forest fruits that you don't encounter from other climate regions such as orange. |

5/8/2020 - graemeg wrote: NR{screwcap, 14%} Plums and cranberries; blends some slightly sour aromatic fruit with a distinct sweetness on the palate, an impression heightened by soft low level dusty tannins but also fairly discreet acid. It’s a bit confected on the palate for what purports to be cool climate cabernet, but doesn’t finish too sweetly for its medium weight body, although it tends towards warmth. Not for cellaring. |
