Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Shiraz
the tough-skinned cabernet means it can be grown and ripened almost everywhere, but it does best in cool regions, Coonawarra to the fore. It comes as no surprise, however, to find the Adelaide Hills and Eden Valley putting their hands up.


Majella The Musician Coonawarra Cabernet Shiraz 2008
94 points, $16.99, Screwcap, 12.5% alc
A Cabernet (70%)/Shiraz (30%) blend which always offers extraordinary value for money, ready to drink any time over the next five years. Good hue; it is a fruit-driven wine with an abundance of blackcurrant and blackberry flavours, supported by ripe tannins which give excellent balance; oak barely enters the equation.
From Coonawarra, SA
Drink to 2015 with marinated beef

Mike Press Adelaide Hills Cabernet Sauvignon 2008
94 points, $13.99, Screwcap, 14.9% alc
Curiously cabernet sauvignon has been on the Adelaide Hills menu for as long as shiraz, even though it theoretically required more warmth. Deep crimson-red; a luscious cabernet crammed to the gills with roughly equal blackcurrant and cassis fruit; despite all this flavour, is not the least extractive, the tannins fine.
From Adelaide Hills, SA
Drink to 2018 with lamb loin

Eden Springs High Eden Cabernet Sauvignon 2006
94 points, $19.90, Screwcap, 14% alc
Sourced from an estate-owned, 32-year-old single vineyard and handpicked, before being entrusted to skilled contract winemaking by Jo Irvine. Good colour; an exceptional vintage resulted in a refined and pure cabernet, with perfectly ripened fruit providing intense blackcurrant flavours, the tannin structure impeccable.
From Eden Valley, SA
Drink to 2021 with lamb backstrap

Rose
surprise, surprise; the two roses which occupied top spots during the dark ages when no-one wanted to drink rose emerge on top. Both are dry, of course, and both are very good.


Charles Melton Barossa Valley Rose of Virginia 2009
96 points, $22.50, Screwcap, 12.5% alc
A slightly higher proportion of grenache (60%) than in previous vintages was, as usual, co-fermented with cabernet and shiraz. Vivid fuchsia in colour, it has fragrant rose petal/raspberry/spice aromas, then a vibrant, positively flavoured palate in a continuing red fruit spectrum. It has good length and a dry, almost savoury, finish.
From Barossa Valley, SA
Drink to 2010 with smoked chicken salad

Turkey Flat Barossa Valley Rose 2009
96 points, $23, Screwcap, 12.5% alc
A blend of Grenache (60%)/Shiraz (19%)/Cabernet Sauvignon (16%)/Dolcetto (5%), largely sourced from a single, dedicated vineyard. Bright fuchsia; the bouquet has fragrant small red fruits plus a touch of spice; the palate with structure and length way above average, the finish deliciously dry, spice coming again on the aftertaste.
From Barossa Valley, SA
Drink to 2010 with antipasto

Pinot Noir

pinot makers in the Yarra Valley, Geelong, Gippsland and Macedon will no doubt feel very unhappy, but at least I cannot be accused of bias. Moreover, Tasmania and the Mornington Peninsula have enjoyed far better vintage conditions than the Yarra Valley et al over the past three or four years. If that were not enough, this was another bitterly contested class.


Stoney Rise Pinot Noir 2008
96 points, $29, Screwcap, 14% alc
Winemaker Joe Holyman calls this a fruit-driven style for early consumption. However, the sheer power of the ’08 vintage took this wine into another league. Deep crimson-purple; has the richness of depth which only Tasmania can produce without losing varietal character; black cherry and plum fruit drives the wine, cleansing acidity on the long finish.
From Northern Tasmania
Drink to 2018 with venison

Ashton Hills Piccadilly Valley Pinot Noir 2008
96 points, $33, Screwcap, 14% alc
Owner/winemaker Stephen George was one of the pioneers of pinot noir in the Adelaide Hills. It shows some colour development; as always, has an extremely expressive and complex bouquet with forest undergrowth and spicy red fruits; the palate is a precise replay of the bouquet, with great length and immaculate balance.
From Adelaide Hills, SA
Drink to 2016 with wild mushroom risotto

Port Phillip Estate Mornington Peninsula Pinot Noir 2008
96 points, $37, Diam, 14% alc
The November 15 opening of the multi-million dollar winery, restaurant and cellar door at Port Phillip Estate was a landmark day. Happily, the wines are of commensurately high quality. Rich plum and cherry fruit on the bouquet appears first on the palate, soon followed by spicy, savoury tannins which give length and authority.
From Mornington Peninsula, Vic
Drink to 2019 with roast squab

Montalto Vineyards Mornington Peninsula Pinot Noir 2008
96 points, $45, Screwcap, 14% alc
This Pinot Trophy winner at the Winewise competition ’09 is an exceptional wine, combining power with finesse; has great balance, line and length, its display of black cherry fruit making the tannins and oak all but irrelevant now; their day to come when the burst of primary fruit diminishes.
From Mornington Peninsula, Vic
Drink to 2018 with Chinese roast duck

Shiraz and Shiraz Viognier

given that there were 271 competing for a place in this group, it is not surprising that every state (other than Tasmania) had at least one wine, and that seven regions were represented. Just as in the under $20 bracket, the wines come from climates ranging from cool, to moderately warm, and to very warm, yet all are beautifully balanced and very complete wines.


Bellarmine Pemberton Shiraz 2008
96 points, $22, Screwcap, 15% alc
This is the third release of this wine, which has already established a formidable track record. Deeply coloured; intensely fragrant black cherry, plum, licorice and spice aromas are precisely repeated on the rich and supple medium- to full-bodied palate; the tannins are round and ripe, oak a background whisper.
From Pemberton, WA
Drink to 2018 with rare roast beef

Tyrrell’s Single Vineyard Stevens Hunter Shiraz 2007
96 points, $35, Screwcap, 13.5% alc
Sourced from the Stevens’ family Old Hillside Vineyard, some of the vines planted in 1867, the oldest in the Hunter. Bright colour; the bouquet has black and red cherry fruit and French oak; the supple texture of the medium-bodied palate is outstanding, allowing the vibrant and fresh fruit full play; great balance and length.
From Lower Hunter Valley, NSW
Drink to 2027 with roast baby kid

Trevor Jones Reserve Wild Witch Barossa Valley Shiraz 2006
97 points, $60, Cork, 14.7% alc
Takes its name from the eponymous vineyard nestled in the hills above Lyndoch, and has always been a flamboyant style. This is a vibrantly fragrant wine exuding spicy black fruits on the bouquet, following through on the intense and silky medium- to full-bodied palate, with outstanding oak and tannins; tremendous length.
From Barossa Valley, SA
Drink to 2026 with peppered steak fillet
www.kellermeister.com.au

Dalwhinnie Moonambel Shiraz 2007
97 points, $65, ProCork, 13.5% alc
The 28th vintage of this wine, which owner/winemaker David Jones believes to be the best to date, and I won’t argue about that. Brilliant crimson colour; a marvelous combination of elegance and intensity, the rippling red and black fruit flavours supported by silky tannins and oak; extreme length and great balance.
From Pyrenees, Vic
Drink to 2020 with braised oxtail
www.dalwhinnie.com.au

Paringa Estate Reserve Special Barrel Selection Mornington Peninsula Shiraz 2007
96 points, $80, Screwcap, 14.5% alc
The crème de la crème of Paringa’s estate grown Shiraz, made by owner/winemaker Lindsay McCall. Strong crimson-purple; a particularly elegant yet equally intense shiraz with a spray of spices, pepper, plum and red cherry fruit on the bouquet and fore-palate, then fine-grained savoury tannins on the finish; oak balanced and integrated.
From Mornington Peninsula, Vic
Drink to 2020 with wagyu beef
www.paringaestate.com.au

Tahbilk 1860 Vines Shiraz 2004
97 points, $160, Cork, 14.3% alc
This is one of the very rare old shiraz blocks without any younger vines planted in the gaps left by dead vines. While only medium-bodied, the wine has gloriously supple texture and structure directed to presenting pure red and black fruit shiraz flavours in the best possible light.
From Nagambie Lakes, Vic
Drink to 2024 with beef casserole
www.tahbilk.com.au

Penfolds Grange 2004
98 points, $650, Cork, 14.3% alc
Quite simply, one of the greatest Granges. It has an amazing depth to the bouquet, oak and black fruits already seamlessly woven; the palate has absolutely perfect proportions to the river of flavours running through blackberry, Satsuma plum, licorice and spice; the tannins are quite active, but totally balanced and ripe.
From Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale and Magill, SA
Drink to 2054 with rare rump steak
