On The Road Again: Travelling, eating and drinking with Winsor Dobbin: The hippest little cellar door bar in the Yarra Valley
http://gourmetontheroad.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-hippest-little-cellar-door-bar-in_13.html
Thursday, 13 August 2015. The hippest little cellar door bar in the Yarra Valley. It is just across the road from the Healesville Hotel and Barrique Wine Store, and directly opposite the funkiest public toilet block in Victoria. Mac Forbes, one of the Yarra Valley's most innovative winemakers, earlier this year opened a new tasting facility in the heart of Healesville. The Graceburn Wine Room is part cellar door, part wine bar, part funky place to hang out with cool kids and even cooler wines. The Graceb...

QWine - Australian Wine Reviews: Te Aro The Charging Bull Tempranillo 2014
http://qwineblog.blogspot.com/2015/08/te-aro-charging-bull-tempranillo-2014.html
Monday, 10 August 2015. Te Aro The Charging Bull Tempranillo 2014. Feed me meat. This stuff just screams for it. Earthy, tar and certainly aromas of violets. There's a charred meatiness about this wine which has me hooked in. A dry grainy and dusty tannin finish only propels the need for tapas or something meaty off the coals. I'd happily go back for another glass. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Vinomofo - 48 hours free shipping. The Lane Vineyard Block 3 Chardonnay 2014. Cooks Lot #333 Riesling 2015.

QWine - Australian Wine Reviews: Lindeman's Pyrus 2013
http://qwineblog.blogspot.com/2015/08/lindemans-pyrus-2013.html
Tuesday, 11 August 2015. This just hums away like a cool R&B tune. Everything has its place yet all the parts work together seamlessly. A blend Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Malbec. Blue and black fruit, tomato leaf, aniseed, balanced oak. What you get is pure and inviting. Complex and layered, there's a depth to it yet it sits on the balls of its feet with enthusiasm. There's no heavy or sinking feeling here. Savoury herbs chime in before a wash of soft tannins flow through. De Iuliis Semillon ...

http://australianwinereviews.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Thomas Girgensohn's Australian Wine Reviews - and Beyond. A blog of new and mature wine reviews for the discerning wine consumer. Friday, April 24, 2015. The 2012 Mauro Molino Nebbiolo d'Alba. Is an attractive entry wine. It does not see any oak. The focus is therefore on the fruit, with a good cherry core and beautifully lifted aromas. This is an easy drinking style, and a wine which should be consumed in the next 2-3 years (90 points). The 2011 Mauro Molino Barolo. Comes from their premium vineyard in ...

The Wine Wank: Bay of Fires Sparkling Tasmanian Cuvee Rosé
http://thewinewank.blogspot.com/2011/12/bay-of-fires-sparkling-tasmanian-cuvee.html
Bay of Fires Sparkling Tasmanian Cuvee Rosé. I’ve just returned from a nice little trip to Northern Tasmania to help celebrate the old girl’s 60th birthday. We ate what could have been one the best meals ever eaten at the brilliant Stillwater restaurant – a singularly exceptional venue where the view from the window is bettered only by the vision presented on the plate, and where both are only sideshows to the quality and flavour of the grub. Likelike in sheep’s wool? We bought a couple of bottles and to...

The Wine Wank: Yalumba 2004 "The Menzies" Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon
http://thewinewank.blogspot.com/2011/05/yalumba-2004-menzies-coonawarra.html
Yalumba 2004 "The Menzies" Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon. An hour after my flight home from London touched down on Saturday morning, I was straight to the track to watch Black Caviar do her thing. Since he was in an area reserved for VIPs, owners and horses, there was of course much speculation about his presence in the enclosure. The second alternative was that he had taken the advice of. Better than bank interest and just as safe. In any event, after Caviar had successfully collected the chocolates by ...
