2021 The Colonial Estate Shiraz Richard Lander

Barossa Valley more

8/8/2023 - Hanh wrote: 86 points

Good mouth filling wine with oak finish. I like it but find it difficult to define. This is young but I am not sure that it is a candidate for years of cellaring. We will see

2018 Willowbrook Merlot

Coonawarra more

11/22/2020 - Hanh Likes this wine: 79 points

Lots of fresh berries and a little dry tannin finish. I would like to try it aged, but I bought it as a quaffer, so I expect that I will just keep drinking it. Quite nice and a bargain.
I have many other wines that I know will benefit from waiting.

An excellent little wine. Despite d'arenberg regarding it as a lesser member of their stable, I am always quite happy at the first mouthful.

This is a very nice woody grenache as a very nice price. The usual d!Arenburg attention to quality with the fruit on the front palate dominating and good oak finish

2017 Farrah Estate Shiraz Reserve

McLaren Vale more

9/21/2019 - Hanh Does not like this wine: 57 points

A really dreadful wine. I honestly could find no redeeming feature.
It is shiraz, which I have a great fondness for, but, apart from the colour, I would not have picked this as shiraz.
Enough, I did not like it

Strongly rememiscent of a prune stuffing in roast lamb.
Perhaps it is the herby middle palate.
A very interesting wine. I will let the rest of the box sit for a while. I am interested to see if anything else develops.

Lots of berry flavours. Tart blackberry and a softer note on the middle palate. I am happy to drink this now although a year or two might add to the complexity.

Buy this wine. It has lots of soft fruit, think stewed peach with sultanas. The middle is more bitter chocolate than tannin. I love it.
