Thomas The Dam Block Shiraz 2021
$40.00Jeremy’s score 91/100An elegant, ethereal medium-bodied shiraz that opens up ever so slowly to reveal a spicy fragrance of raspberries, strawberries and chocolatey oak before a gentle palate whose juicy presence of cherries, berries and blood plums overlies a very fine spine of powdery tannins. As a four year-old it has fleshed out beautifully, easing into its spine of tight-grained tannins, extending long and stylish, finishing savoury with notes of fennel and redcurrant.

Thomas The Dam Block Shiraz 2022
$40.00Jeremy’s score 91/100A fine, restrained and elegant Hunter shiraz whose heady, musky and floral aromas of small black and red berries reveal faintly ferrous undertones of cedar and mineral. Medium in weight, it’s long, gentle and supple, with a lively, sour-edged core of raspberries, blood plums and boysenberries underpinned by very fine tannins and wrapped in a racy acidity. It finishes spicy and almost savoury, with an emphasis on red licorice, black and blue fruit.

Thomas The O.C. Semillon 2023
$30.00Jeremy’s score 94/100Classically fine, shapely, taut and elegant, with a faintly floral bouquet of lemon and lime backed by chalky mineral notes and a whiff of melon. Long and very persistent, it’s pithy and flavoursome, punctuated by a refreshing acidity and finishing with a briny minerality.

Thomas The O.C. Semillon 2025
$30.00Jeremy’s score 94/100An excellent Hunter semillon that is, quite unusually in fact, wonderful to drink now and through the coming summer but will also develop great complexity and character in the bottle for a decade and more. Its intense, voluminous scents of lemon zest and white flowers reveal a whiff of chalk and mineral, while its mouthfilling core of pristine, translucently clear flavour drives long and crunchy towards a refreshing, dry and faintly saline finish. Honestly, if seafood is your thing…
