Beautiful density and balance, full bodied with poise, dark chocolate, umami flavours. After some time the nose blossoms into a complex melange of aromas.</p><p>Tasted on Mon, Mar 25, 2024.</p>Terence L.2024-03-25T09:58:08Z2018 Château Tanunda Terroirs of the Barossa Ebenezer District ShirazLars H.http://www.corkscore.com/wine/5635#review-1732872024-03-25T12:14:59Z2024-03-25T12:14:59Z<p><b>95 points</b> - The wine now coming into focus. Lifted iron oxide nose, providing a fine mineral line. Superbly integrated even at this stage in its life. Smooth. Dark cherry, with an almost dark chocolate backdrop.</p><p>Tasted on Mon, Mar 25, 2024.</p>Lars H.2024-03-25T12:14:59Z2019 Atze's Corner Zen Master 1912 Centurion Vineyard ShirazTerence L.http://www.corkscore.com/wine/142014#review-1732782024-03-23T09:24:53Z2024-03-23T09:24:53Z<p><b>87 points</b> - Dark purple red. Dense, savoury, dried herb aromas. Very dense and concentrated. Phenolic and very structural. A bit of dead fruit character unfortunately. But lovely with the charcoal grilled tomahawk steak tonight. It release the fruit sweetness.</p><p>Tasted on Sat, Mar 23, 2024.</p>Terence L.2024-03-23T09:24:53Z2019 Château Tanunda Grand Barossa Cabernet SauvignonTerence L.http://www.corkscore.com/wine/5647#review-1732792024-03-23T09:27:23Z2024-03-23T09:27:23Z<p><b>88 points</b> - Densely packed nose, smoky and mineral.

Rich, dense, focussed with good cassis, blue berry like character. Sappy, minerally, some freshness. Good if a bit overpriced!</p><p>Tasted on Sat, Mar 23, 2024.</p>Terence L.2024-03-23T09:29:51Z2022 Utopos GrenacheLars H.http://www.corkscore.com/wine/204405#review-1732722024-03-22T05:25:57Z2024-03-22T05:25:57Z<p><b>95 points</b> - Deep medium red purple. Good colour with that slight tinge of red. Brooding dark berries on the nose. Has opened up wonderfully over the past six hours: tannins superbly smoothed out, the wine medium to full bodied. Superbly balanced. There are dark berry tones blended with Barossa iron rust undercurrent. Outstanding wine.</p><p>Tasted on Fri, Mar 22, 2024.</p>Lars H.2024-03-22T05:25:57Z2020 Schubert Estate The Hatchling ShirazTerence L.http://www.corkscore.com/wine/177605#review-1731812024-03-15T10:16:57Z2024-03-15T09:15:12Z<p><b>86 points</b> - Medium dark red. Medium bodied, staid and drying, tannins not so integrated, fruit light and somewhat displaced. There is an ester like, acetone component in the nose.</p><p>Tasted on Fri, Mar 15, 2024.</p>Terence L.2024-03-15T09:15:12Z2019 Auswan Creek 1908 Single Vineyard ShirazLars H.http://www.corkscore.com/wine/203625#review-1731712024-03-11T12:02:23Z2024-03-11T12:02:23Z<p><b>92 points</b> - Chocolate, French oak.

Densely woven, plummy aromas, slightly heaty. The palate is fruit driven, dense tannins, grippy and statuesque. A real mouthful of wine. This is perfect with tonight’s slow roasted rump cap. Spicy barrel work lingering. Charry bitterness lingering. A big wine.</p><p>Tasted on Mon, Mar 11, 2024.</p>Terence L.2024-03-11T10:04:42Z
