Down under, the traditional Southern Rhône blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre is commonly known by the name GSM (or SGM)—based on the Australian no-nonsense attitude and strong belief in “calling a spade a spade,” or calling these Rhône blends afte...

Quite perfumed on the nose, with aromas of apple blossoms, dry tree bark, quince and limes.While painfully young, this shows great cut in the mouth with a nice edge of richness, though it remains medium to light bodied. There's a lovely rush of sour apple, lime and raw quince flavors on the palate, with gentle floral accents and a hint of spice ... Read More

This wine shows the great potential of Australian Shiraz. The nose is quite aromatic with chocolate, holiday spices, and cassis. The pallette is rich and unctuous with mocha, blackberry, baking chocolate and pepper. Very long finish. Silky smooth tannins. Read More

Dark and spicy with an almost camphor-like aspect to the black pepper top note to the blueberry and blackberry fruit. Air brings out the classic apricot and floral aromas of Viognier which are sweet and well-integrated here. This is a little tight on entry but shows fine balance with an early rush of blueberry and blackberry fruit followed by l... Read More

This deep ruby-colored wine has a rich and complex nose of black truffle, pink pepper, sweet licorice and dried herbs . This is a juicy, fresh wine, with flavors of cherry, red plum, cedar and a hint of leather and thyme in the lifted finish. The tannins are ripe and supple and the wine is ready to drink now, though I believe it may gain some co... Read More

Bright red in color with youthful crimson and a seductive blend of dark cherries, cocoa, subtle oak, and earthy notes on the nose. A rich wine, with integrated tannins and layers of red and black berries, sweet spices ( cloves, nutmeg) and a pronounced dark chocolate nose in the persistent finish. Read More

A big wine, deep purple in color, with a great tannic structure and lifted freshness. It shows some herbaceous characteristics (mint, dried herbs) as well as lots of juicy red and black fruit as well as a little vanilla and coconut from the oak. The tannins are chewy and the finish a little earthy with cocoa notes. I believe that with age, the ... Read More
