Greg's Wine Preferences I was first introduced to wine and the appreciation of a good bottle of wine back in the 70s when I started playing professional golf in Europe. I would frequently enjoy a bottle of wine with dinner and since I was playing a great deal of golf in France at the time, we favored French wine. While in Australia, I did try many Aussie wines, but they were not nearly as popular as they are today. I drank Californian wine very infrequently, as I was not a regular in the States. Now, however, it seems all I drink are varietals from Australia or California, as I tend to enjoy their qualities better than wines from other countries. One of my favorite wines is the Australian Reserve Shiraz. It has such a deep, intense flavor, filled with tannins that are pronounced but not overbearing, and a hint of blueberry. Zinfandel is also a personal favorite, and the new Lake County Zinfandel has the spicy, red fruit character style that I particularly enjoy. Only after many years of experimenting with Read more »

Color is an obnoxiously dark ruby. Nose is coffee with candy-apple coating, black cherry, cassis with a little bit of tobacco and a hint of clove. Taste reminded me of black cherries, a little licorice some wood and tobacco. The oak is stronger than th...

Greg Norman Australia Estates Shiraz 2012

Snoothrank:

I have a sinus infection so take this review for what it worth. Drank this over three days. I was surprised this wine leaned to a more old world style with limited fruit on the nose and palate, it was a bit herbaceous. It has a good level of acidity and mildly tannic on the finish. Not bad but nothing I'm likely to seek out. Read More

A bit obviously oaky on the nose with chocolate covered pomegranate aromas along with some exotic floral spice notes dominating the nose. Smooth and rich, if even a bit lean in the mouth. Theres some lovely sour cherry flavors here along with the chocolate covered pomegranate found on the nose all laid out over fairly well integrated vanilla a... Read More

Thanks EMark. So let's lift my Merlot budget to under $20. I tried Columbia Crest Grand Estates Merlot earlier this year and the flavor was weak with zero finish so I plan to stay away from their merlots.My fabulous local liquor store has 2 reasonably priced Merlots I've been considering: Annabella and Greg Norman Limestone Cabernet-Merlot. Any... Read More

July 2014

I need some help finding a under $15 Merlot. For years my go-to Merlot was Clos du Bois North Coast because it had soft tannins, lush red/dark fruit and a silky mouthfeel/finish. The '12 and '13 vintages had a spice component that I didn't like so Merlot, hasn't been in my lineup. I recently tried an Old World Merlot, Clos de la Moriette, whi... Read More
