2016 Schwarz Wine Company Shiraz Single Barrel Selection Loveday Vineyard
10/1/2022 - keiran Likes this wine:
I bought the 3 pack of this a few years ago and popped one of these with some friends to see where it is at.
Huge, rich and intense, it was immediately clear that this needs much more time. Atleast another 5 years before this starts to mellow out and the tannins fold in.
Excited to see where it ends up in the future.

2017 Oakridge Cabernet Sauvignon Original Vineyard
3/7/2022 - keiran Likes this wine:
This is a really solid Cabernet, savoury with cassia bark, tobacco, medium tannins and very dry, like others have mentioned, it needs a significant decant before it is approachable.
I decanted this 6 hours before dinner based on others suggestions (and after an exploratory taste) and it was drinking nicely. The rest of the bottle we had the next day and it was still in a good spot overall, but had lost some of its richness.

2006 Wendouree Shiraz Mataro
6/26/2021 - keiran Likes this wine:
This is the first time trying this producer after lusting over them in online auctions or the premium end of the bottle shop and it didn't disappoint!
Opened this for a special occasion with the other half. Decanted for 2.5 hours in the finest glassware from the local Wagga Wagga supermarket. Significant sediment.
Deep maroon with a tinge of brown/red on the edges on the pour.
Super concentrated flavours of Leather, Liquorice, spice and notes of port. Great tannins and a super long finish.
A great wine with a very unique style, I'd say this has quite a bit longer left in it, but I think it drinks very well now.
Can't wait to try more from this producer when the budget allows !
