Wine Front: Opens a little stinky and charred but there's a good amount of fleshy cherry and plum fruit along with Hunter earth and some vanilla oak. Appropriately firm, but fine tannin, ...

Wine Front: I tasted and reviewed this with the label facing me, but without knowing the price tag... No one quite invests in McLaren Vale grenache like D'Arenberg does, so you can't blam...

Wine Enthusiast: A consistent performer, Yalumba's Hand Picked Shiraz-Viognier seems slightly bigger and chunkier in 2008 than in the past, with bold fruit-blueberries and blackberries-accente...

Wine Spectator: Focused, juicy and effusive with its notes of black cherry, roasted red pepper and savory spice, this isn't a heavy wine, but it's persistent as the finish extends. Best from ...

Wine Front: It's an elegant pinot noir with punchy length. Not quite a peacock's tail but not far from it. Dark cherries with a lighter, redder, strawberried lift. Forest floor. Saucy soy...
