Hunter Reds

[Muscat Mike]

The question remains: Which Hunter Shiraz has THE BEST track record for consistent excellent quality over the last 10, 20, 30 years?

What is the Hunter Grange?

Tyrrells Long Flat Red

YOU get over here and give yourself an uppercut. You are a naughty little boy.

For me:

Lakes Folly (had one last month and just fantastic - think it was a 99, not 100% sure)

Maurice O'Shea (these need time though)

Mistress Block and Wade Block from Brokenwood (thought they tasted as good as Graveyeard but perhaps less cellaring potential) - Must point out - it took 20 mins of pestering to get a taste of Graveyard from the CD...

Tyrrells Stevens Shiraz is great value and a good wine

And I have "discovered" DeIuliis shiraz's - very very nice and have a distinct porty taste. Start from $20 for show reserve..

My view anyway..

GW,

I must bring a bottle of the 2000 Tower Estate Hunter Shiraz for you to try sometime. Quite prostigious, to borrow a phrase. One of the best Hunters I have tried for some time.

Just picked up 6 bottles of this at auction (together with 6 of the 99 Coonawarra Cab) for £35, plus about £4 buyers premium / vat
Postage to add on mind, but happy with the price and hope the wine matches up to it.

I'm sure I'll crack a bottle soon after the parcel arrives, so will try to remember to post.
