The Jimmy Watson is being awarded tomorrow night! What is everyones tip??
For what it's worth I think the 2013 Seppelt St Peters is a huge chance!
Anyone else want to have a crack?

St Henri 2012? Ah yes, not new release, but 1-2 year old wine.
Something from Tyrrell's 2014 collection.
Some random hipster wine.
You heard it here first.

probably a bit predictable :
2013 Kalleske Greenock Shiraz
or
2013 Mount Langi Ghiran Mast Shiraz

I know the trophy CAN be awarded to a two year wine, but it has ALWAYS been given to a one year old wine in the past. So maybe those 2013's may not get up.

That's a good point. I've got no clue to be honest. I have wines that I like that I'd like to see win.
Then there's wines that get a lot of good reviews across the board that might be a chance.
I assume they get a ton of entries and they're all tasted blind?

my tip is that in three years time, no-one will remember or care. Pointless award.

While I didn't have the pleasure of knowing Jimmy Watson, I suspect that he wouldn't have chosen a pinot
