  Found this on the (rather good) wine list at the Cremorne Hotel in Adelaide at an exceedingly reasonable price and remembered a favourable impression at the Coonawarra so I ordered a bottle to accompany lamb shoulder. Very Coonawarra nose with a lick of polished oak...blackcurrant, mint/eucalyptus, caramel and a little cassis, milk chocolate and an almost malty note. Juicy with fresh blackcurrant, woody notes, toouch of caramel, sweet spice. Tannins are grape and oak derived offering a little plain chocolate and the alcohol warmth helps carry the finish which also shows that malty note. Pretty good and an unexpected pleasure.

  Coonawarra Roadshow (Masonic Hall, Goulburn street): A little crème de cassis, sweet spice, fresh blackcurrant, cedar. Medium plus intensity acidity, crunchy blackcurrant and super chewy chalky slightly drying tannins, smidge of mint. Very nice.

  Cellar door purchase, pop n pour, drank over 3 hours. Ruby with a garnet hue, too young for bricking. Tight as expected, but feel a decent middle ground here, subtle fruits with more prominent cigar box and pencil shavings characteristics on show than anything else, no green notes which I prefer. It will be interesting to see how this develops. I’ve the young pop n pour. Hold for a couple years, try again then.
