2014 Sir Ian Botham Cabernet Sauvignon, Connawarra, Australia

Sir Ian Botham, Drink now,

This wine is a bin-end, discounted by 30%.

Classic Coonawarra Cabernet, cool blackcurrant fruit with a hint of mint. Lovely intensity. Tannins are fine and well-integrated, good depth across the palate with an attractive ‘juiciness’ to the fruit. Silky and feels very complete already, the benefit of releasing to the market with some bottle age. This is a very fine but generous Cabernet, simply a very impressive wine which will age beautifully (but there’s no need to wait!) Drink 2019 – 2026+
Martyn Rolph, Private Account Sales Manager

The aromas immediately announce the variety, displaying intense characters of blackcurrant, red berry, black olive and a subtle hint of menthol. Combined with the nutty oak aromas, this wine delivers a complex yet elegant bouquet.
The palate of this wine has a perfectly aligned structure, weight and intensity creating a backbone for longevity. The aromas on the nose follow through onto the palate and these full bodied, spicy flavours combined with pin point acidity and firm, grainy tannins deliver a wine of stature and grace. This wine will continue to develop in complexity and interest for as long as you can manage to cellar it.

2014 Penfolds Reserve Bin A, Chardonnay

Penfolds, Ready, but will improve,

Brighter, fresher and more restrained than I remember previous releases: this has real freshness on the nose with bright citrus fruit and subtle complexity, with hints of freshly crushed almond. Cool, glossy and textured on the palate, underpinned by tangy citrus acidity; this is balanced, racy and fresh, closer to the style of Yattarna in previous releases, but with a softer, more generous mouth-feel. The wine is fermented in 80 percent new French oak, but this is so well-integrated you wouldn’t know. It would be fun to taste blind.

2014 Penfolds, St Henri Shiraz, Coonawarra, South Australia

Penfolds, For laying down,

The 2014 is a very true representation of St Henri which is, for me, the absolute sweet spot within the Penfolds Icon range. The large oak vats used impose almost no oak-derived character at all. The nose is lifted, generous and graceful with lots of redcurrant and cherry. It is deliciously silky, with ripe, fine tannins and freshening acidity. Certainly no shrinking violet, there is plenty of fleshy fruit here, but this is refined and classy. The word “pure” appears in my tasting note again and again. Notes of eucalypt, star anise and bacon fat linger across the long finish. Drink 2020-2045+.

2014 Penfolds Grange

Penfolds, For laying down,

Fully ripe, intensely flavoured and structured, this is a magnificent wine. A blend of 98 percent Shiraz and two percent Cabernet Sauvignon from the Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, Wrattonbully, Clare Valley and Magil Estate, it has been aged for 20 months in 100 percent new American hogsheads. Deep plush garnet, the wine has an unmistakable fragrant Grange nose of dark fruits, spices, coffee bean and gamey notes. On the palate there is a backbone of firm tannins and great lifting freshness; savoury, meaty and earthy with a fruit profile reminiscent of black plums and blueberries. Grange has an amazing power, with complexity and persistence shown on the very long finish which allows all the flavours to coat the palate beautifully. Drink 2020-2045.

2014 Penfolds Bin 311 Tumbarumba Chardonnay

Penfolds, Ready, but will keep,

A classic, well-delineated Australian Chardonnay bouquet of ripe fruit with a hint of toasty oak from its eight months in used French oak barriques. This is dangerously easy to drink on the palate, plenty of ripe fruit, hints of nuts and citrus, a little touch of oak and nicely judged acidity. This is drinking very nicely now, but will keep for keep for three to four years.

2014 Mangan Semillon Cullen

Cullen Wines, For laying down,

Some tempered classic Semillon notes of fleshy white fruit, coupled with floral hints on the nose. That lovely white fruit again on the palate, crisp acidity from the 14% Sauvignon Blanc content, keeps everything in check, taut and mineral. A bit more richness then comes through on the finish, ripe yellow plums and the tell-tale Semillon hint of boiled sweets. Good depth and breadth and nice length.

2014 Penfolds Marananga Bin 150 Shiraz, Barossa Valley, South Australia

Penfolds, For laying down,

This is unabashed and unashamedly Barossa Shiraz. That’s not to say this isn’t elegant and refined – it certainly is. The fruit on the front of the palate is super supple and velvet-soft. It is also complex, taut, linear and refreshing – all in all a very uncommon, classy style. There is much behind the initial fruit which offers immediate pleasure. The wine is broad-shouldered overall, but with very fine tannins. In short, this is as impressive a wine as I have tasted at this level. Very proper. Drink now to 2028.

2014 Penfolds RWT Shiraz

Penfolds, For laying down,

RWT, now also known as Bin 798, is so much more than a classic Barossa Shiraz. Deep ruby with a slight purple hue, the nose has an abundance of red plum, damson, crunchy ripe redcurrants and cranberries – everything you’d expect from Barossa fruit, but then you are treated to a wonderful floral lift with a touch of spice and freshly ground black peppercorns. Peter Gago describes the 2014 as “arguably more Syrah than Shiraz” and this added aromatic elegance makes you think just that. The palate is smooth and velvety, the oak (100 percent French, 70 percent new) is beautifully integrated with the fleshy ripe fruit, laced with spice and liquorice and some herbal, star anise characters adding extra complexity. Start drinking this in a couple of years’ time and see how it evolves over the next 20 years. This is one for the long haul which will develop a fascinating, rich, savoury complexity.
