General: I tasted the 2005 and wrote about it here . Time for the 2006...
Varities: Shiraz, Tempranillo
Region/G.I.: North East Victoria, King Valley
Alcohol: 14.0%
Bouquet: Complex. Savoury (a hint of Rosemary) with lovely animal tones. Fruit in the nose suggests sour cherry and there is some oak in there as well.
Flavour: Full mouth of fruit up front followed by satisfying, dry tannins. Not as complex as the nose suggests but a very well made wine. The flavour lingers; very good length.
Points: 84
Notes: At $13.00 (233 Kc) this is certainly a bargain. The wine shows consistency between 2005 and 2006. I must get myself to the King Valley. A perfect reason to visit Eva Kresakova who lives in that area!
