Jim Barry McRae Wood Shiraz 1998

Yet another outstanding wine from the 1998 vintage. Opaque crimson colour. Aroma of mint, truffle, spice, violets with a hint of toasted oak. The palate flavours are impressive, with the mint characteristic reappearing, followed by flavours of spice, chocolate and plum. Perfect balance, with very long aftertaste of mint, plum, aniseed and stewed fruit.

Ratings:

    James Halliday: 91/100

 James Halliday Review:

    "Medium to full red-purple; a typically fragrant and lush bouquet with a mix of berry, mint, cedar, tobacco and spice, followed by a lush palate ranging through all of the flavours of the bouquet with chocolate and mint to the fore; the oak is controlled, as are the tannins."

Penfolds Bin 389 2003

A tightly focused, firm and sassy 389 of structure and sophistication. Deeply scented with alluring and lightly spicy aromas of crushed dark berries and cedary oak, this slightly meaty red blend reveals undertones of briar, white pepper, mint and a hint of game. Long and smooth, its intense and dark-fruited palate of cassis, mulberries, cherries and plums is underpinned by a chalky chassis of firm tannin. It slowly reveals nuances of dried herbs and underlying meatiness, while its generous complement of vanilla oak shows some classy integration. It’s a lot more contemporary than the traditional 389, but very impressive, all the same
