Haven't tried the 13s, but the Grenache and Shiraz Grenache were both very good in 2012.

Congratulations. You have won a prize!!

Me too Sam, and planning a visit to the new CD.
Tempted to get more Hanlin Hill, there is never enough of the best white grape in the world in the cellar, but will settle for 6 of the essence.

Cheers

Craig - if you after the essence, I reckon you'd like the Cane Cut better. I thought it was a ripper.
