Wynns Black Label 1999Coonawarra, South Australia. Cabernet sauvignon. 13.5%. Cork. Source: Cellar.Rather than a picture of the bottle, I thought I'd show the meal that accompanied the wine.

Maison Louis Latour Chassagne-Montrachet Blanc 2005Chassagne-Montrachet, Beaune, Burgundy, France. Chardonnay. 13.5%. Cork.Both book and wine were opened and enjoyed today.

It smells and tastes as it should and for only $10 it is quite convincing and surprisingly good.

Kalleske JMK Shiraz VP 2006Greenock, Barossa, South Australia. Fortified. Shiraz. 19%. Cork. Approx $A28 for a stumpy half bottle. JMK = John Malcolm Kalleske.A wine that is both pyknotic and enveloping. From the start it is able to clearly evoke the image of shriveled shiraz berries, laden with sugar, patiently waiting to... |
