The 2018 Tapanappa Whalebone Vineyard Merlot-Cabernet Franc is a ripe complex wine, with intensity as well as strength and is a “true expression of the unique Whalebone Vineyard terroir”. Aromas are leafy and floral from the Cabernet Franc and rich plum pudding from the Merlot. The slight mint and fresh earth of the Whalebone terroir is melded with the cedar of the oak and the olive aroma of the tannin. The flavours reflect the aroma and the fruit is immediately sweet and ripe, graduating to a refined tannin and balanced acid finish.

Savour a 96pt Coonawarra Shiraz Cabernet from top-rated Penley (an amalgamation of two hugely celebrated wine names, Penfold & Toley) – and exceptional winemaker Kate Goodman. “The '22 Eos is matured in 40% new French oak from a mix of coopers. Aromas of boysenberries off the tree, bleeding pomegranate and rhubarb stem, iron-enriched soils, resting meat and wattleseed spice. There is adzuki bean sweetness with a rush of powdery tannins that sweeps you right off your feet. Once you’ve made it back safely to earth you'll ponder just how mysterious and thought provoking a well-handled Aussie cab shiraz blend can be. There is a creaminess like the very highest quality dark chocolate, an interplay of bitterness and luxury that lingers across the palate. Truly a wine of intrigue and beauty. 96pts” (Shanteh Wale, The Halliday Wine Companion). "In '88, Kym, Ang and Bec Tolley joined forces to buy a block of land in Coonawarra – Penley Estate was underway, the amalgamation of a 5th-generation wine family Penfold and Tolley." (Halliday).

The Levantine Hill Cabernet Sauvignon is redolent with blackberry, blackcurrant and cocoa-rich chocolate. The supple, balanced middle palate evokes truffle, bramble and earthy complexity. An outstanding example of the Yarra Valley region, its chewy, satisfying tannins are beautifully-integrated with fleshy fruit characters, hedonic spice and lingering, persistent length.

Petaluma Merlot is medium body with a brick red colour, the superbly perfumed bouquet is a tangle of marzipan, spice, plum and confectionery and is the best nose of the early Petalumas. On the palate, flavours of cherry, plum and spice emerge, with very good depth and complexity.
