Wine from Australia

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: One of Margaret River's (and Australia's) iconic Chardonnays, Leeuwin's 2014 Art Series Chardonnay continues that proud tradition. Never shy on toasty, nutty oak or bold fruit, the 2014 features both seamlessly woven...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 98 points: Who would've thought that in the context of Barossa Shiraz, the 2015 RunRig would seem like a relative bargain? It's certainly much less expensive than Grange or Hill of Grace will be when they're released. It's also more...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: The Block 6 Shiraz comes from centurion vines plated in 1896. The 2006 Block 6 Shiraz has a very deep garnet color going a little brick in the rim and an evolved, earthy / gamey nose with notes of mulberries, dried plums...

Wine Spectator, 95 points: Amazingly rich and seductive a towering wine with layers and layers of rich blackberry plum cherry and sweet spice flavors that cascade across a dense structure polished to a fare-thee-well so the flavors ring unopposed...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: Deep garnet colored, the 2005 Hillside Shiraz reveals a wonderfully expressive, spicy nose with some notes of game, potpourri, dried cranberries and kirsch. It is a glorious, full-bodied wine packed with complex flavor...

jebdunnuck.com, 96 points: Slightly more reserved and deep than the ‘Barney’s Block’, the 2009 Two Hands Shiraz 'Coach House Block' Single Vineyard Seppeltsfield Road Greenock is a wine that slowly opens up over the evening and sports heavenly...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: The Shiraz for the 2006 The Descendant is sourced from a single vineyard and co-fermented with 8% Viognier. It was aged for 18 months in seasoned French oak. Opaque purple-colored, it emits an expressive, sexy perfume of...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 90 points: The 2001 Cabernet Sauvignon Cyril Henschke (65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 15% Merlot) exhibits a Bordeaux-like austerity as well as aromas and flavors of tobacco smoke, licorice, spice box, red currants...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 99 points: Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2006 Astralis has stunning nose redolent of warm blackberries, meat, toast and charcoal, infused with notes of smoked duck, anise and a slight bit of peat. Though still very youthful, this...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 98 points: Say what you will about a Cabernet Sauvignon with 18% alcohol, ultimately it is balance that counts. The fruit is sourced from the Greenock region of the Barossa, one of the Valley’s premier terroirs, and the 2005 is 100%...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: The 2006 Shiraz was barrel-fermented and aged for 14 months in 85% new oak with the barrels 90% American and 10% French. Saturated purple in color it reveals a splendid bouquet of smoke pencil lead bacon grilled meat and...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 97 points: The 2005 The Factor is 100% Shiraz sourced from dry grown vines from six sub-regions of Barossa. It spent 24 months in 30% new French oak. Opaque purple-colored, it delivers an expressive bouquet of pepper, smoke...

James Halliday, 96 points: Shows exceptional generosity from start to finish, yet retains finesse; the predominantly red fruits positively dance on the back-palate and finish, uninhibited by the fine-grained tannins; stained cork a worry.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: 96+ Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, the 2012 Ergo Sum Shiraz displays a lovely red berry, raspberry and Bing cherry nose with notes of roses, violets, lavender, wild thyme and pepper. Medium-bodied, tight-knit and...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: The exceptionally fragrant, dark purple 2003 Syrah Moritz Vineyard boasts an extraordinary perfume of acacia flowers, blackberries, cassis, roasted meats, and subtle wood. With fabulous concentration, an expansive, savory...
