>	10/20/2003	2002 Marquis Philips - Merlot South Eastern Australia Merlot Australia - South Eastern Australia 2002 Marquis Philips - Merlot South Eastern Australia	78 Clearly the weakest link in Marquis Philips? portfolio. Absent the marketing driven need for having something with "Merlot" written on it I question why this wine is even produced. Dark red colored wine with a Brett filled nose of sweat socks, mint, leather, and plum. Much better on the palate where attractive creamy oak flavors dominate leading to diffuse fruit and oak flavor on the finish. A wine to drink while holding one?s nose. Drink now.

>	12/01/2005	2004 Marquis Philips - Merlot South Eastern Australia Merlot Australia - South Eastern Australia 2004 Marquis Philips - Merlot South Eastern Australia	87 Color out to the rim with moderately thick and colored legs. Chocolate, coffee, candied cherry and plums, some game, and oak aromas with a fair amount of heat as well. Nicely viscous and mouth coating with good depth of flavor and fine acidity. Quite a bit of a burn on the finish. A supple and appealing wine for drinking over the short term. Given past vintage performances with this varietal, I was pleasantly surprised at how drinkable the 2004 Merlot has turned out to be. Closed with a screwcap.

>	12/23/2009	2007 Jacob's Creek - Chardonnay Chardonnay Australia - South Eastern Australia 2007 Jacob's Creek - Chardonnay	This wine once opened holds incredibly well when kept very cold (winter garage!) and second time seems to even have developed a new set of flavor eperiences.

>	08/21/2009	2004 Tyrrell's - Shiraz Lost Block Syrah Australia - South Eastern Australia 2004 Tyrrell's - Shiraz Lost Block	89 Smooth drinkable Shiraz, not the big bombs that you sometimes expect. Paired well with pork chops. I found this useful: Yes \| No Report a problem		TXFood and Vino , 87.5%
>	05/09/2009	2006 De Bortoli - Semillon Botrytis Noble One Semillon Australia - South Eastern Australia 2006 De Bortoli - Semillon Botrytis Noble One	92 Golden with a watery rim. Classic apricot and honeyed botrytis aromas. Very forward. Rich and concentrated but not cloying because of the good acidity. Sweet white-stone fruits and a hint of raisin on the finish. Smooth, sweet and delicious. Excellent value. I found this useful: Yes \| No Report a problem		biggsy , 100%
