		<description><![CDATA[ A lot of news in the media recently about Rockbank Shiraz judged as the worlds best shiraz. It was from the so called Melbourne Dress Circle vintage of 2004. I have not tasted the Rockbank but have tried many 2004 Shiraz from the dress circle and they have all been excellent. I received this [...]]]></description>

So today I walked into North Sydney Cellars and saw Dave beavering away to my left (and he does look slightly beaveresque admittedly) and a stack of MLG 2005 a bit ahead of me. &#8220;98 Points [...]]]></description>

Delightful aromatics - black plum and blue fruits, tar, minerals, white flowers, camphor and liquorice [...]]]></description>

Hmm..I thought it might be something to do with Champagne being on fire..or ablaze and therefore &#8220;blason&#8221; (gesticulate wildly) in French. I prefer my translation anyway..much nicer.

Impressive red purple colour then a blackcurrant, spice, mocha and an undercurrent of eucalyptus leaf and stalk. It&#8217;s medium to full [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Sublime Wines&#8221; it says on the label (front and back), not exactly subliminal, but then I tend to think humility is over-rated too. Just ask me. Anyway, this is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (42%), Merlot (42%) and Shiraz (8%).
It smells of peppermint tea, raspberry coulis, blackcurrant, dusty oak and some licorice. Full bodied with [...]]]></description>

Spotlessly clean with good ripe fruit that&#8217;s not overtly tropical with juicy limes, a light grassiness, capsicum spice and fennel. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You could have some discussion about the merits of the 2004 v 2005 Coonawarra vintage, and more pertinently the Menzies from these years. My opening gambit is that generally, largely based on stylistic preference, I prefer 2004. There are always exceptions of course, and with this particular wine I fractionally prefer the 2004 because it [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s typically Cabernet with red berry and blackcurrant, tobacco, a little mint and sensible cedar oak [...]]]></description>

The Barton vineyard ranks as one of the most interesting vineyards that exist in Moppa section of the Barossa Valley. The 80-100 year old gnarled Shiraz vines give the wine a certain edginess.
