Smoky, nutty aromas lead to textbook, commercial peach-and-oak flavors that finish a little short. Good; tastes like a basic, by-the-glass pour at your local boîte. 1 Note

Now in its maturity, the 2006 Tahbilk Viognier shows developed notes of roses, herbal tea and grain while still evincing a youthful expression of fresh pine needles. It’s concentrated, broad and viscous with a medium, hay-flavored finish. Drink now. 1 Note

Tahbilk is proud owner of the largest Marsanne holdings in the world, with a reputation for making ageworthy examples. Perhaps this one just needs more time, then, as it comes across as nothing more than a nicely balanced, medium-bodied dry white with modest notes of pears and almonds. 1 Note

This varietal Marsanne has pretty almond and coffee liqueur aromas, and a palate rife with grassy, citrusy tones. It sounds disjointed but actually works quite well. Acidity is lively and would be razor sharp, were it not saved by a moderating minerally overlay. Worth seeking out. 1 Note

A very good, medium-bodied Vigonier, but one that may stump you if you taste it blind: it smells of yellow stone fruit and clarified butter, followed by flavors of fresh bread, tradiing card bubblegum powder and citrus. The pleasantly dry, citrus component continues on through the finish. 1 Note

This Cab is already turning somewhat brick in color. Its flavors and aromas are of red fruit, but they are less fleshy than they are like skin and seeds. The wine’s pleasing, smooth mouthfeel is its best feature. Imported by Broadbent Selections, Inc. 1 Note

Has flavors of blackberry and grape. At this stage of its young life, this Shiraz is dominated by a veneer of oak, and seems flat, rather than vibrant, because of it. A year or two in bottle may yield a plumper, rounder wine. 1 Note

This wine’s flavors are dark and interesting, but folks looking for a full-throttle, superrich wine should just keep browsing. Lifted black and blueberry fruit on the nose. On the palate, smoke, chewy cherry and bitter chocolate flavors are couched in a dusty feel. Lessens in intensity toward the back end, but it’s still very attractive.

Plum and berry fruit on the palate are juicy but fairly main stream; pretty notes of spice accent roasted blackberry aromas. Textured tannins add interest on the finish. 1 Note

The aromas are just beautiful: Inhale deeply and there’s spice, nut, cassis and gumtree notes. Has wooly, textured tannins that grip the midpalate firmly, along with plum and almond paste notes that carry on through the finish. A real pleasure; drink after 2008.
