A tart, hard-edged rendition of Clare Valley Shiraz, from the cool subsection known as Polish Hill better known for its Rieslings. Tart plum and berry flavors are touched with spice, vanilla and traces of hickory smoke and bacon fat. The appealing aromatics are the wine’s best facet. Try aging it through 2015 and see if it improves.

Animated and intensely likable, with exotic scents of Chinese spices and tropical limes floating over a mineral undertow. There’s some intensity to the lemon-lime flavors on the palate, but they dissipate quickly on the crisp, short finish. Drink up.

A rich, amply endowed Clare Riesling, with potent lime aromas accented by touches of petrol, plenty of flavor intensity and a long finish composed of citrus and spice. Hints of baked apple and petrol suggest it may not be the longest-lived Riesling, but it’s delicious now and should be good for another five years or so.

There’s just a bit of Merlot mixed with the Cabernet Sauvignon here (18%) that likely contributes to the herbal, woodsy aspect of the nose. It’s juicy and crisp, with sweet fruit and firm but ripe tannins in the mouth. A solid value. Drink now.
