2005 Penfolds Koonunga Hill, South Australia
Chardonnay
Fruity white wine with the rich style characteristic to Penfolds wines. You can taste the fruit and smell the oak.
Tasting notes: On site tasting and it drinks nicely. On the sale, so I got some. (Kevin, UK, 17 January, 2007)
2005 Tintara Horseshoe Row, South Australia
Chardonnay
This is a deep and intense, without being overbearing, red wine. Its taste has hints of clove and a eucalyptus finish.
Tasting notes: I am expecting to taste the mild climate from the place it was made in this wine. That's what I looking for in the middle of winter, a taste of spring.. (Kevin, UK, 20 January, 2007)
2005 Tintara Horseshoe Row, South Australia
Shiraz
Pleasant white wine with a taste of ripe tropical fruit and oak scent.
Tasting notes:From the Tintara McLaren Vale winery. They have better wines, but this one is nice and I was looking for bargains.(Kevin, UK, 20 January, 2007)
2004 Penfolds Koonunga Hill, South Australia
Shiraz and Cabernet blend
A red wine full of sweet fruity currants and spice with well blended tannins.
Tasting notes: Offered but not tasted after the white wine. Also on sale. (Kevin, UK, 17 January, 2007
2003 Henry's Drive Padthaway Shiraz, South Australia
Shiraz
A complex red wine with plenty of aromas to reach your nose and equally lurid flavors, count everything from blackberries to oak with earthy aromas and licorice taste. Not the average wine, with the potential to age very well reaching more balance between and fruit and mature flavors.
Tasting notes: Friends opened a bottle to show. Very good wine, but apparently it will get much, much better with time. I thought it was good enough so I hope I will be invited to try it again then because it is difficult to find. (Kevin, UK, 17 January, 2007)
