This wine’s pretty green. There’s celery seed and weed on the nose; red, tomato-y fruit on the palate gets a dose of green bean toward the finish. Imported by Click Wine Group.

This is a stylish, feminine Cabernets, one that has plenty of blackberry and cassis fruit but dealt it with a delicate hand. Wood adds anise and mochalike accents. A very good wine, and a good flag-bearer for the Hills. A blend of Cabernets, Malbec, Merlot and Shiraz. 192 cases produced. Imported by Click Wine Group.

This South Australian shows complexity from stem to stern, its deep, dark fruit accented by tobacco and anise. The fruit shines on the palate, but the finish really stands out, with tremendous length and an impressive cocoa, nut, plum and caramel fade. The elements aren’t unique; this just struts its fine stuff in perfect proportion, with great balance and style. Drink now and until 2006. Top Value.

Aromas of cut flowers and cherry fruit hidden by a veneer of toast and a certain medicinal quality leave off at the palate, where pretty cherry fruit and a lean back end foretell of a slim cherry finish. Delicate, with firm acids. —K.F.

This straight shooter opens with gamy meat and burned toast aromas. The palate shows solid red plum and cherry fruit. It is this honest fruit combined with such good acids that make the nose forgivable. —K.F.

Aromas are of meat and tree bark; fruit flavors are more like plum skin than flesh. Not very giving. Tasted twice. Imported by Click Wine Group.

Fresh and lively bouquet, with aromas of grapefruit and green veggies, i.e. peas and beans. Pours on the citrus flavors, with accents of passion fruit and ginger. Spritzy feeling, with zesty acidity. Turns a bit lemony toward the back end. Imported by Click Wine Group.

A very good wine, with a smooth feel on its side. The nose has a stewy, figgy quality, and the finish, a fair amount of char, but what’s in between—taut plum fruit—is enjoyable. Imported by Click Wine Group.

Weedy on the nose one moment, sweet the next. Feels halfhearted on the palate, and missing verve. Still, it offers black and purple berry fruit, and moderate tannins. Imported by Click Wine Group.

A Shiraz with a Type A personality: Big and brash on the nose, with enthusiastic, forward flavors on the palate. Up front, it smells like marzipan, toast, raspberry and blackberry, and similar notes ring true in the mouth. Finishes pretty long, with a biscuit or cracker-like flavor. Very tasty. Imported by Click Wine Group.
