Though it’s crisp and fresh in the mouth, this wine has some weight (and some oily viscosity) to it. Starts off in the mouth with a burst of sweetness, and a limey, grassy streak carries it through to the finish. Nose is fruity, with nectarine and mango highlights. 1 Note

Give this Cab a little time to open, and you'll be rewarded with blackberry and black pepper aromas, and big, smooth plum flavors on the palate. The best part is its chalky-claylike mouthfeel. This is Jim Barry Wines' first foray outside of Clare; the winery has bought a Coonawarra vineyard that's planted on a former cricket field, hence the label and the name. 1 Note

Medium-full in the mouth; has a strong mineral backbone, and is dressed up with white peach and floral flavors. It’s even more floral and perfumed on the nose, with delicate jasmine and honey aromas. 1 Note

I very much like and admire this wine for many reasons, but primarily because it doesn’t taste like any other wine. There’s black cherry fruit at the center, with currant, olive and earthy flavors. It’s a sizeable, though not overdone, wine with a nice chalk-clay texture, and aromas of eucalyptus, earth and cool-climate fruit. Only in its second vintage but already consistently good. 1 Note

This Shiraz is rich in fruit yet slender in body. There’s eucalyptus on the nose, too, backed by limestone and plum aromas. The blackberry, and even blueberry, fruit is taut yet concentrated, and brightened by refreshing eucalyptus notes. The minty-eucalyptus crispness clings on through the finish, where it’s moderated by a wheaty, pastry-crust close. At this price, and this quality, there’s really no reason not to keep a few bottles around the house. 1 Note

This is an easygoing, food-friendly Shiraz, with lightly jammy scents of red berries accented by smoke and graham cracker. Finishes tart and crisp, marked by coffee and chocolate. 1 Note
