Community Tasting Note

Sunday, July 12, 2009 - 1989 lives in the shadow of 1990 however like the Grange this wine is the one you want to drink if consumption is going to happen in the next 5-10 years. Those 1990's Barossa Shiraz are pups. A lovely full mature Australian Shiraz which more than held its own against the also lovely Ch Bahans Haut-Brion of the same year - anybody who thinks Australia cannot produce top-class 'Old World' classics needs to get with the program. This wine was also dominated by tobacco and secondary savoury characters however with breathing became a perfumed wonder.
