    Tapanappa Whalebone Vineyard Cabernet Shiraz 2003
    Jeremy’s score 95/100

    Rated 0 out of 5

    This much-anticipated release from Brian Croser resembles more a finer and more elegant Penfolds-style red with a foot off the tannin pedal than a Petaluma Coonawarra. It’s the first Tapanappa release from the mature and highly respected old Koppamurra vineyard. Scented with cassis, dark plums, cedar and plain chocolate, it delivers a lightly smoky, long, seamless and willowy expression of fully ripened fruit, fine powdery oak and tight-knit tannin. There’s more of an accent of cassis and dark cherry on the palate, while it finishes long, fine and savoury. Beautifully balanced, structured and focused; sure to develop very well.

    Tapanappa Whalebone Vineyard Cabernet Shiraz 2005
    Jeremy’s score 93/100

    Rated 0 out of 5

    Long, fine-grained and savoury, with a spicy, minty and menthol-like bouquet of small black and red berries, violets and chocolate/cedar oak with smoky mocha undertones. Sumptuously ripened, its deep palate of dark plums and berries, briar and woodsmoke is underpinned by a loose-knit undercarriage of firm tannin and backed by savoury French oak. With the faintest hint of under and overripened fruit, it builds in intensity towards its lingering finish.

    Tapanappa Whalebone Vineyard Cabernet Shiraz 2006
    Jeremy’s score 90/100

    Rated 0 out of 5

    A polished, if rather jammy and slightly baked oaky dry red that slowly opens out to reveal a deep, underlying core of juicy, ripe fruit. Its meaty, minty bouquet of blackberries, dark cherries, plums and cedar/chocolate/vanilla oak reveals nuances of baked earth. Sumptuously and profoundly ripened, bordering porty, its deep, dark fruit and smooth oak are underpinned by firmish, fine-grained tannins. It needs plenty of aeration to flesh out its mid palate.

    Tapanappa Whalebone Vineyard Cabernet Shiraz 2006
    Jeremy’s score 86/100

    Rated 0 out of 5

    Heavy-handed, and soupy, with a meaty spectrum of currants and raisins backed by smoky, raw mocha/chocolate oak, roast walnuts and briar. Spicy and savoury, itÕs dark-fruited, rather cooked but out of balance, lacking the density of fruit to handle its level of cooperage.

    Tapanappa Whalebone Vineyard Cabernet Shiraz 2009
    Jeremy’s score 87/100

    Rated 0 out of 5

    Tiring and showing signs of age, with a sweet, fiery bouquet of cassis, blackberries and polished leathery backed by dusty, chocolatey and herbal nuances. ItÕs supported by a slightly raw and green-edged spine of loose-knit tannin and while itÕs initially sweet and juicy, it becomes more hollow down the palate, lacking genuine ripeness and vivaciousness.

    Tapanappa Whalebone Vineyard Cabernet Shiraz 2010
    Jeremy’s score 88/100

    Rated 0 out of 5

    Sweet, minty and menthol-like aromas of small black and red berries backed by creamy, chocolatey, cedary oak precede an intense, rather jammy and old-fashioned palate whose slightly hollow presence of small dark berries and plums is supported by a measured, dusty spine before finishing with rather an assertive acidity. Lacks genuine elegance and charm.

    Tapanappa Whalebone Vineyard Cabernet Shiraz 2012
    Jeremy’s score 90/100

    Rated 0 out of 5

    Polished and elegant, this sweetly fruited blend has a heady, slightly minty and menthol-like bouquet of cassis, redcurrants and sweet plums backed by fresh cedar/vanilla oak. ItÕs luscious and finely honed, with a plush, evenly ripened but faintly baked presence of minty plum and berry knit with fresh pine needle-like oak and framed by smooth, pliant tannins.
