2009 Clarendon Hills Grenache Clarendon - Australia, South Australia, Fleurieu, Clarendon (4/10/2022)
Day 1: Bright fruit and flavorful. Raspberries, strawberry and blackberries. Mild spice, minerals and fresh roasted coffee beans. Medium plus finish. Super tasty wine without the over the top alcohol. Highly recommended. 92 points
Here is a code I got for $10 off $50 or more on anything on the site.
THREEDAY-APRIL
I got these two as they had some good tracker reviews.
2013 Lachini Pinot Noir Lachini Family Estate Solid Cellar Tracker Scores
2009 Château d’Arche Sauternes
2 no brainers are 2017 Cadence Bel Canto on the Premium Selection and my new favorite wine the 2011 Clarendon Hills Sandown. No brainer for me on a six pack at $27.99. Premier Online Wine Shop | Wines Til Sold Out | wtso.com
Thanks John, you pushed me over the edge on the Clarendon Hills Cab. I like to think me opining on their Bookman Merlot did the same for you. Full circle.
This Sauternes is solid for the money. I think it is free shipping on the half bottle sale over $40.
Use this code for $10 off of $50 or more. THREEDAY-APRIL
2009 Château d’Arche Sauternes - France, Bordeaux, Sauternais, Sauternes (4/14/2022)
Day 1: Just got this shipment on Wednesday and wanted to try a bottle before the sale ends on WTSO. This is a solid Sauternes for the money. Nothing off the charts but $24.99 worth a three pack. Apricots, honey suckles, minerals, sour apple and melon. Good acidity and love the half bottle as most of my off lines by design are six or less. 92 points
I always find that if you bought the wine you can rebuy it. One thing I wish they would do is allow everyone to search for wines in their inventory and be able to purchase.
Code still good though Monday: THREEDAY-APRIL
This is a good one in the Premium Selection I posted a note on that is worth the money for $32.99
2018 Kay Brothers Shiraz Hillside Amery Vineyards - Australia, South Australia, Fleurieu, McLaren Vale (4/13/2022)
WTSO Recent Wines; 3/1/2022-4/14/2022: Day 1: One hour in the glass and this is opening up and revealing amazing fruit featuring boysenberry, mulberries and ripe plums. Nice acidity overall along with black pepper, scorched earth and dark coco. Concentrated wine but drinking well young. 92 points
Day 2: Little less intense than day 1 but equally enjoyable. Mulberries and boysenberry. Cracked black pepper, spice, crushed rock, violets and dust. Not your over the top Aussie Shiraz. 14.5% alcohol. A nice value overall. 92 points
Recommendation: A solid buy at $32.99 with free shipping from WTSO. (92 points)
Who bought the last of the Clarendon Hills Sandown! Just opened another one right now and was going to buy a case. Your welcome and great job Lisa P with your 86 point rating.
