Ripe primary fruit driven nose with lovely blackberries and plums. Rich and full bodied with bold cherry ripe, mint and chocolate flavours. Well balanced with well integrate tannins for such a robust wine. Traditional Bendigo red.
Passing Clouds Shiraz 2019, Bendigo, Vic
A blend of 3 vineyards. Pungent blackberries with earthy, licorice notes. Rich full bodied wine with attractive fine dry tannins. Plums and licorice flavours dominate the palate. Well balanced with a slightly warm homely finish. Well priced wine.
Passing Clouds The Angel Cabernet Sauvignon 2018, Bendigo, Victoria
Extended post maceration and 18 months in oak gives this wine a lovely texture and dry tannic finish. Medium plus body with nicely balanced black fruit and cedar oak.
Water Wheel Memsie Shiraz 2014, Bendigo Victoria.
Probably the best value for money wine I tasted whilst composing the 6th edition, Peppery nose, bags of sweet red fruit. Jammy, full bodied.
Bendigo Shiraz 2014.
Suprising strong white pepper on the nose. Soft sweet fruit, a hint cooked but has enough style to finish dry. Great value for money.
