We've had incredible luck lately, getting some truly fabulous wines to taste. Included in these amazing events were the Grand Barossa wines from Chateau Tanunda, a South Australian winemaker of long-standing. We tasted a Riesling (yes, from Australia!), a Shiraz, and their Cabernet Sauvignon. Here are my tasting notes from that evening:
Riesling - Flowery citrus on the nose and palate, really round in the mouth, crisp acidic finish.Cabernet Sauvignon - green pepper on the nose, dark cherries, mild tannins, long smooth finish.Shiraz - cocoa aroma, dark plum, smooth mouthfeel, lingering finish.
These were really outstanding wines, definitely worth searching out.

Lucky you! I love Australian wines, most possibly influenced by the fact that I love Australia!
