The winery's web site only has the 2012 and 2013 listed.

Have just taken delivery of the Shiraz LaBoeuf and Co. case and just thought I'd trot out the contents not that there are any great surprises:

1 x 2014 Maverick Ahrens Creek
1 x 2015 Capel Vale Cellar Exclusive
2 x 2014 Richard Hamilton
2 x 2013 Chain of Ponds Graves Gate
2 x 2013 Anarchist Mt Benson
2 x 2015 Norfolk Rise Mt Benson

I've twisted the top off a Norfolk Rise and obviously I'm not expecting Chateau Margaux for $10 but.....it's OK, certainly not bowled over by it, still very young and might be more exciting in a few years time but I'm kinda glad I didn't jump on a dozen of these when they first came around! Still slightly suffering the aftermath of a bout of sinusitis so I'm probaly being a bit harsh, quite stoked to have received the bottle of Maverick Ahrens Creek in the case though...

A nice selection I would have thought, and it's nice to have a little variety as well. Well done.

I actually thought the Norfolk was excellent value for the price paid. I sense you like the bigger barossa style, so maybe the cool climate isn't your cup of tea?

Thanks old chum, must say I'm glad to get a chance to run a few of these over the tastebuds in case I want to swoop on them as a dozen-buy at a later date....

You know me too well! I'd be the first to admit that I go for the "generously proportioned" end-of-town kind of reds but am happy to have a crack at something more elegant/restrained, I'll have another taste tonight and give my honest opinion!
 
I'm sure this has already been discovered, but does anyone know what this Chardy is?

Alright then, my unalloyed opinion '(chiefly of emotions) complete and unreserved.'
"unalloyed delight" ;)


note to self: Must use the adjective 'Unalloyed' more in conversation, especially at work. Hopefully such verbosity will distract colleagues from my constant attempts to involve them in various wine deals.
