Thank you. The Parker Estate "Hungry Lou" Shiraz Tokay 2018 has my interest, but I can find very little information (other than the cellar). I was hoping someone on here might have some experience

Free Shipping on this evening. Anybody know what this is? Also had a buyer email for Parker Estate "Hungry Lou" Shiraz Tokay 2018. 96 points James Halliday. Less than 100 cases available (earlier this afternoon)

An iron fist in a velvet glove, this museum-release gem is a masterclass in aged shiraz. Silky smooth and luxurious beyond measure. Intense aromas of fresh blueberry, cherry, liquorice and spice saunter from the glass with style. The palate is deep, rich, super complex and impeccably balanced...

I was undecided, so didn't contact the broker to get the price. Interesting that the broker deals seem to go to a random distribution list

Well opened the first of the Kirrihill The Squire 2018 Shiraz and was very, very impressed (as was everyone else) - the bottle(s) didn't last long. Deep red in colour, strong aroma and taste of berries, followed by coffee and hints of spice. The berries reminded me of some older cabs rather than...

What vintage does the surviving bottle say?

My experience was also that the carton was damp due to the condensation - the boxes definitely need to be handled with care as a result. I'm not sure that if they have been left outside for any period, that a bottom lift would still be enough - the cardboard goes soft very quickly (maybe the...

Having thoroughly enjoyed the 2018 Montara Riesling, I boomed when the 2016 came on offer. I arrived home today to find the case by the front door - it looked like it had been opened, so I went to check that all 12 bottles were still there and found that the bottles were cold and damp to touch...

Having openend a bottle this evening, thought I'd post my comments. If you are looking for a big, bold (Barossa) Shiraz - this is definitely not. First impressions are light (but not thin), with a long finish. Dominant flavours are pepper and tobacco - berry flavours very hidden (for me...
