The Clarendon Hills Wines are simply stunning. They're an eclectic mix of fruit purity and winemaking funk. Not everyone loves Roman Bratasiuk's wine-making, but there's no doubt that they can be breathtaking. His 1994s broke the mold of Australian industrialism with their old world charm and new world power. I've got some 93 Merlot and Cabernet tucked away, and a couple of bottles of 94 Shiraz (which was awarded 96 or 98 out of 100 by Wine Spectator all those years ago). You've reminded me that it might be time to pull these out of storage...

WineBusProf Wow- 294 days since I was last here. I'd better pick up my act.

Rckr1951- so sorry that I teased you on this one. In fact, I found out in the meantime that to have my wines in Aus shipped to France would cost about Au$20- per bottle. Now, if I had Screaming Eagles, Chris Ringlands, Felton Roads and a series of first growths and Grands Crus, I'd be tempted to get my collection moved to France. However, I don't. So, they'll be staying put for another couple of years in premium storage back in Aus.

When I get back there, I'll pull these out and bring them to the EWBC... I'd be very happy to share withanyone who's there. You'll just have to go that year!

Minty, euclyptus on the nose with flowery fruit underneath. In the mouth this is a song to Kirsch and blueberries, fat ones. Nice acidity, and good balance though a wine that needs to be aged for a good 15 years.
