Clarendon Hills Romas Grenache is a single vineyard wine made from a patch of fruit on the steepest and rockiest section of the Blewitt Springs Grenache vineyard. Gnarly old vines planted in the 1940’s produce microscopic yields along with amazing acidity and present an acidity profile similar to that of a white wine. The density of the rocks and soil up in this part of the vineyard defines Romas and warrants its isolation from other parts of the vineyard and position as flagship Grenache expression at Clarendon Hills. The heavy presence of ironstone, quartz and shale rocks limit the size and yields of these vines and the resulting wine reflects the mineral elements. The expression we receive from this highly concentrated part of the vineyard is utterly hedonistic and offers mineral complexity for the wine collectors and enthusiasts out there. Typically each vintage yields a vivid kaleidoscope of fresh cut roses, Turkish delight, musk, sherbert, blood orange, blueberry, raspberry and kirsch fruit across an effortless powerful palate aloft with silk and ultra fine talcum like extract. Nuances of crushed rock, flint, graphite, iodine and ferrous like rust take this expression to the next level. Despite the majesty of the tasting note the profile is medium weighted and mirrors an iron fist in the velvet glove analogy. Amazing both right now to drink and also for the next 20 years in the cellar.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41373319790655,"sku":null,"price":75.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/7674\/7071\/files\/rUqjt8LmZq.png?v=1735524951"},{"product_id":"clarendon-hills-blewitt-springs-grenache-2005-750ml-1-bottle-lot","title":"2005 Clarendon Hills Blewitt Springs Grenache - 98 Points","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan id=\"isPasted\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2005 Blewitt Springs Grenache at 98\/100 where Erin remarks “The Blewitt Springs vineyard is eastern facing, in the belly of the hill, planted in the 1940s, in deep Blewitt Hill sands.

It delivers an ethereal bouquet of smoky oak, violets, espresso, black pepper, blueberry, and blackberry liqueur. Densely packed and tightly wound, all it needs is time.

Full-bodied with a sensational texture as well as stunning purity, balance, and length (the finish lasts nearly a minute), Michael Twelftree believes it has at least 20 years of cellaring potential, and I see no reason to disagree.

Until 3-4 decades ago, many Australian wineries were better known for their fortified than dry table wines. For whatever reason, many of these fortifieds fell out of favor in Australia, and have never received the respect they deserve given how spectacular many can be. Rick Burge’s ancestors always made fortified wines, and kept the soleras active during their lifetimes. After many years, Rick Burge decided to begin bottling some of these old fortified wines. There are five different offerings, all of them stunningly rich and intense. I suspect most of them are extremely old, although no records were kept, so it is impossible to know the average age of the solera for each of these cuvees. No one will be disappointed in these spectacular non-vintage fortifieds.

A blend of 97% Shiraz and 3% Viognier, this is Torbreck’s flagship offering. Sadly, there are only 1,500 cases produced. Sourced from old vines, some close to 140 years of age, it is fashioned from four sectors of Barossa – Marananga, Koonunga Hill, Moppa, and Greenock. It spends 30 months in 60% new French oak before being bottled without fining or filtration. The powerful, full-bodied 2001 exhibits aromas of creme de cassis, blackberry liqueur, ink, espresso, graphite, and apricot marmalade. The impression on the palate is one of marvellous richness, expansive texture, a multi-layered skyscraper soaring across the palate with no heaviness. It is a tour de force in winemaking, but give it 2-3 years of bottle age, and drink it over the following 15-20+ years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0;

A gentle spring with ample rain and little wind produced a full, healthy canopy with good fruit set. Then came January, February, March and April; non-stop, sun drenched, dry gentle south-westerlies. Only 12mL of rain fell during these four months, the lowest ever recorded. With extensive green harvest, the big crop still garnered huge concentration.

Initially the bouquet reveals lifted florals of crushed violets and lavender, followed by the primary fruit characters of dark forest berries, black plums and cassis. The secondary spice characters, clove and thyme are layered with leather and a hint of freshly roasted dark coffee. The tannins are firm and well structured. There is massive fruit weight, which balances the natural acidity perfectly. The persistence on the palate is massive this wine goes forever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 25px; color: #333333; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;\"\u003eThe 2010 Larose has a beautiful density that is fused with elegance.

One of the top wines I tasted from this vintage (which has had to take a back seat to subsequent years), its dense ruby\/purple color is followed by a big, sweet nose of blackberries, cherries, chocolate, and earth. With decent acidity, ripe, silky tannin, superb intensity, wonderful equilibrium, and a more open-knit, softer, accessible style than usual, it can be drunk now or cellared for 15-16 years.

Although expensive, it is produced from 110-year old vines, and represents one of the great classics from Barossa. When compared to the price of a wine such as Penfolds Grange, it is a reasonably good bargain. The inky purple color is accompanied by gorgeous aromas of smoke, camphor, melted licorice, blackberries, cherries, and flowers.

This big, pure, rich Shiraz can be drunk now or cellared for 10-15 years\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-transform: translateX(var(--tw-translate-x)) translateY(var(--tw-translate-y)) rotate(var(--tw-rotate)) skewX(var(--tw-skew-x)) skewY(var(--tw-skew-y)) scaleX(var(--tw-scale-x)) scaleY(var(--tw-scale-y)); --tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-filter: var(--tw-blur) var(--tw-brightness) var(--tw-contrast) var(--tw-grayscale) var(--tw-hue-rotate) var(--tw-invert) var(--tw-saturate) var(--tw-sepia) var(--tw-drop-shadow); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; color: #2f3436; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: medium; border: 0px solid rgba(221, 221, 221, var(--tw-border-opacity));\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"box-sizing: border-box; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-transform: translateX(var(--tw-translate-x)) translateY(var(--tw-translate-y)) rotate(var(--tw-rotate)) skewX(var(--tw-skew-x)) skewY(var(--tw-skew-y)) scaleX(var(--tw-scale-x)) scaleY(var(--tw-scale-y)); --tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-filter: var(--tw-blur) var(--tw-brightness) var(--tw-contrast) var(--tw-grayscale) var(--tw-hue-rotate) var(--tw-invert) var(--tw-saturate) var(--tw-sepia) var(--tw-drop-shadow); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-weight: bolder; color: #2f3436; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: medium; border: 0px solid rgba(221, 221, 221, var(--tw-border-opacity));\"\u003e96 points\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-transform: translateX(var(--tw-translate-x)) translateY(var(--tw-translate-y)) rotate(var(--tw-rotate)) skewX(var(--tw-skew-x)) skewY(var(--tw-skew-y)) scaleX(var(--tw-scale-x)) scaleY(var(--tw-scale-y)); --tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-filter: var(--tw-blur) var(--tw-brightness) var(--tw-contrast) var(--tw-grayscale) var(--tw-hue-rotate) var(--tw-invert) var(--tw-saturate) var(--tw-sepia) var(--tw-drop-shadow); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; color: #2f3436; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: medium; border: 0px solid rgba(221, 221, 221, var(--tw-border-opacity));\"\u003e\u003cem style=\"box-sizing: border-box; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-transform: translateX(var(--tw-translate-x)) translateY(var(--tw-translate-y)) rotate(var(--tw-rotate)) skewX(var(--tw-skew-x)) skewY(var(--tw-skew-y)) scaleX(var(--tw-scale-x)) scaleY(var(--tw-scale-y)); --tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-filter: var(--tw-blur) var(--tw-brightness) var(--tw-contrast) var(--tw-grayscale) var(--tw-hue-rotate) var(--tw-invert) var(--tw-saturate) var(--tw-sepia) var(--tw-drop-shadow); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; color: #2f3436; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: medium; border: 0px solid rgba(221, 221, 221, var(--tw-border-opacity));\"\u003eRobert Parker - Wine Advocate #161 (Oct 2005)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PAF70","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41373338796095,"sku":"306-BA-L3","price":284.8,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/7674\/7071\/files\/2bWraabFg2_c67af1d4-75ac-4f19-acbf-ef4af813a5af.jpg?v=1739434487"},{"product_id":"darenberg-the-dead-arm-shiraz-2003-1500-ml","title":"2003 d'Arenberg The Dead Arm Shiraz 1500mL","description":"\u003cul style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px 1.25rem; padding: 0px; list-style-position: outside; line-height: 1.6; color: #261d14; font-family: Assistant, sans-serif; font-size: 18px;\"\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e95\/100 Points Robert Parker Jnr.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eCork Closure\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #555555; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #2f3436; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003e\"One of this estate’s flagship wines, the 2003 The Dead Arm Shiraz appears to be better than the 2002.
