Chateau Margaux Cabernet Blend 1983
$3,100.00Jeremy’s score 98/100An exercise in balance and finesse, this is a classic Margaux that delivers a truly exceptional bouquet of smoky, cigarboxy and underbrush, with a long, silky and red-fruited palate that seamlessly extends forever. One of the highlights of this spectacular vintage.

Mount Mary Quintet Cabernet Blend 2010
$285.00Jeremy’s score 90/100A deep, alluring perfume of violets, cassis, raspberries and mulberries is augmented by fresh, fine-grained cedar/vanilla oak and undertones of dried herbs. With time it has begun to reveal suggestions of wet wool and lanolin, losing the brightness of its youth. It’s still supple and fine-grained, with a lively core of red berry flavour, but it’s drying out from the finish and does finish with some slightly edgy and awkward aspects.

Mount Mary Quintet Cabernet Blend 2011
$250.00Jeremy’s score 91/100Willowy and elegant, with the structure, length and balance and mature with grace. Dusty and faintly herbal aromas of small black and red berries, mulberries and violets backed by restrained oak and musky forest floor undertones, reveal a hint of capsicum. Initially plump and juicy, it’s medium to full-bodied, with restrained but lively black and red berry and plum flavours supported by reserved oak and a supple spine of dusty tannin. It finishes with length and persistence, but with some underlying herbal notes and a suggestion of green-edged acidity.

Peter Lehmann Stonewell Shiraz 2005
$650.00Jeremy’s score 93/100Deeply flavoured, this firmly structured, ripe and astringent shiraz reveals a briary, spicy bouquet whose deep scents of mulberries, dark cherries, blackberries and smoky vanilla/cedar oak are backed by nuances of dark olives. Brooding and deeply layered, with dark plum and berry flavours underpinned by drying, sinewy tannins, it is likely to flesh out with more fruit sweetness and roundness in the years ahead.

Wantirna Estate Amelia Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2011
$90.00Jeremy’s score 90/100Charmingly gentle, smooth and supple, with a delicate, dusty bouquet of light floral notes, sweet black and red berries and restrained cedary oak. It’s finely crafted, elegant and willowy, with a pleasing length of gentle fruit, reserved oak and supple tannins, finishing with fresh acids and just a hint of a green edge.
