This label may have been in existence for a few years but the 2003s may be the first time a small portion of this export orientated job has stayed at home. Justin McNamee knocks out dround 500 cases across 3 wines. I think all wines are priced at $35.
Shiraz 2003 - Recommended
Shy nose giving me nothing. High quality palate, smooth, brightly fruited with a great gamey, savoury streak. Very unique in the mouth. Hard to reco a first up at $35 but I'd give this one a crack.
Grenache 2003
Porty, fruit cake nose. Feels pushed. A bit tighter to taste but has a stewed fruit feel...a bit burnt and porty for mine. OTT at 16%.
Tempranillo 2004
Perfumed nose of sweet berries. Very appealing. Sweet fruit early in the mouth but settles into a dryer, ever so slightly tannic feel. Well structured and quite complex but needs a bit more fruit oomph.
