Wine: Padthaway Estate Elgin Merlot 2000
Wine Review Date: 01/09/2001
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: Honest, smooth and supple, this pleasingly fleshy merlot does have a slightly weedy note to its bright cherry, raspberry and strawberry aromas,
while its tight-knit palate reveals clearly evident mocha/vanilla oak with plum-like fruit. (16.2, Drink 2002-2005, )
Wine: Palandri Riesling 2004
Wine Review Date: 21/12/2004
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: Slightly sweaty, tropical aromas of stonefruit and herbal undertones precede a round, juicy and slightly sweet palate offering intense and vibrant peach/lime juice flavours. Its refreshing acids clean up the palate nicely. (Frankland River, )
Wine: Palandri Sauvignon Blanc 2000
Wine Review Date: 01/02/2002
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: A developing, sweaty and toasty young wine whose lack of fruit freshness is partially obscured by excessive acidity, while its thick, juicy palate of ripe gooseberry and passionfruit flavour is a little hot and spirity.
(15.2, Drink 2001-2002, )
Wine: Palliser Estate Pinot Noir
Wine Review Date: 01/12/1997
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: Opens up tremendously after decanting to reveal perfumed spicy fruit and a fleshy, supple palate with undergrowth-like complexity and sweet confection-like berry flavours. Restrained and very elegant, with excellent intensity and varietal purity. (17.9, Drink 1998-2001, )
Wine: Palliser Estate Pinot Noir 1997
Wine Review Date: 01/12/1998
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: A deeply, flavoured and rather chunky young Martinborough pinot whose smoky chocolate oak slightly overshadows its deep and concentrated flavours of sweet cherries and violets. Strongly built, it just needs time to settle. (18.6, Drink 2002-2005, )
Wine: Palliser Estate Pinot Noir 2001
Wine Review Date: 01/11/2002
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: Supple, willowy pinot noir that sits lightly on the palate. A vibrant perfume of red and black cherries with chocolate/vanilla oak if fresh and floral. Packed with translucent flavours of sweet cherries and plums, its sappy palate is intermeshed with fine, tight-knit tannins and framed by refreshing acids. (18.2, drink 2006-2009, )
Wine: Panorama Estate Pinot Noir 2004
Wine Review Date: 08/07/2006
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: This meaty and vegetal pinot should evolve into a pungent and assertive wine. Its musky floral perfume of red cherries, raspberries and redcurrants has a confectionary or whole bunch fermentation aspect, with undertones of cloves and cinnamon. Moderately long, smooth and elegant, it’s framed by firmish, powdery tannins, offering a pleasing length of intense cherry/berry fruit before a lingering savoury and tightly structured finish. (Huon Valley, 16.7/89, drink 2006-2009+)
Wine: Panorama Pinot Noir 2003
Wine Review Date: 21/09/2005
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: A pleasing marriage of vital, juicy fruit with a firm, fine structure and earthy complexity. Its slightly confection-like fragrance of maraschino cherries, raspberries and red plums is backed by slightly meaty oak and forest floor-like undertones. It’s juicy and fleshy, perhaps with a faint stalkiness, but long and evenly structured, finishing savoury and slightly meaty. (Huon Valley, )
Wine: Paracombe Sauvignon Blanc 2002
Wine Review Date: 18/06/2003
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: Punchy ripe sauvignon blanc whose vibrant aromas of passionfruit, cassis and gooseberries overly restrained, lightly sweaty herbal and mineral undertones. Long, juicy and slippery palate whose racy fruit and funky/sweaty complexity are framed by refreshing citrusy acids, finishing clean and dry. Excellent freshness and shape. 18.6, drink 2003-2004+, ( )
Wine: Paringa Estate Chardonnay 2001
Wine Review Date: 09/07/2004
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: Forward, assertive and early-maturing chardonnay whose slightly herbal, mealy aromas of peaches and melons, pineapple and bananas reveal some earthy, leesy complexity. Juicy and tropical, its initially fleshy, textured palate moves into a steely finish of assertive acidity softened by buttery/butterscotch malolactic influences. (Mornington Peninsula, 17.2, 2003-2006)
Wine: Paringa Estate Chardonnay 2002
Wine Review Date: 17/07/2004
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: Spicy, nutty and mealy aromas of closed, citrusy fruit precede a juicy, forward palate that lacks genuine length and brightness, becoming nutty and savoury before a soft, oak-dominated finish. (Mornington Peninsula, 15.6, 2004-2007)
Wine: Paringa Estate Chardonnay 2003
Wine Review Date: 21/09/2005
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: Big, slightly overblown aromas of peach and melon fruit are backed by toasty, toffee-like butterscotch malolactic influences. Its juicy, almost cloying and oily palate of up-front toffee-like fruit finishes rather flat, without much length. Rather hard, lacking elegance and brightness of fruit and cramped by aggressive oak. (Mornington Peninsula, )
Wine: Paringa Estate Chardonnay 2005
Wine Review Date: 08/07/2006
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: Juicy aromas of lemon rind, pineapple and grapefruit with slightly herbal undertones precede a smooth, elegant palate whose tropical and citrusy fruit finishes just a little sweet and cloying. (Mornington Peninsula, 16.5/88, drink 2007-2010+)
Wine: Paringa Estate Pinot Noir 1997
Wine Review Date: 01/02/1998
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: A distinctive barrel-fermented wine whose pungent, smoky, chocolate oak-derived aromas are ably countered by deeply concentrated cassis/plum/cherry fruit. Its opulently proportioned palate has a multi-layered intensity and texture of ripe, concentrated fruit and smoky oak. (18.6, Drink 2002-2005)
Wine: Paringa Estate Pinot Noir 1998
Wine Review Date: 01/06/1999
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: Time alone is needed on cork for this sumptuous and savoury pinot to fully deliver on the palate everything promised by its spicy rose garden fragrance of red cherries, sweet plums and cinnamon, smoky and vanilla oak. Dark cherry pinot flavours that border on the essential are set against slightly aggressive and smoky oak, assertive alcohol and firm, lingering tannins. (18.6, Drink 2003-2006+)
Wine: Paringa Estate Pinot Noir 2000
Wine Review Date: 01/07/2001
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: Typically spicy, floral and musky perfumed pinot whose dark cherry and plum aromas are offset by stalky and smoky chocolate oak influences. Rather concentrated and quite stylish with a bright, juicy palate of intense ripe fruit, finishing long and savoury. Fractionally cooked for top marks. (18.0, Drink 2002-2005+, )
Wine: Paringa Estate Pinot Noir 2002
Wine Review Date: 09/07/2004
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: Meaty, savoury and early-drinking pinot with a sweet, spicy aroma of slightly stewed plums, dark cherries and meaty, currant-like qualities. Smooth, polished and marginally stressed, its concentrated and forward palate of dark plum, berry and currant flavours finishes soft and savoury. (Mornington Peninsula, 16.5, 2004-2007)
Wine: Paringa Estate Pinot Noir 2003
Wine Review Date: 21/09/2005
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: A rather hard-edged pinot whose slightly dull, herbal aromas of cherries, cooked plums and red berries over cedary vanilla oak precede a forward, stewed and meaty palate that appears heavily worked for its modest depth of bright fruit. (Mornington Peninsula, )
Wine: Paringa Estate Pinot Noir 2004
Wine Review Date: 08/07/2006
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: A sweet fragrance of red berries, cherries with floral, spicy and slightly varnishy undetones precedes a smooth and sappy palate framed by firmish, fine and powdery tannins. There’s weight and structure aplenty, with lively flavours of red berries, cherries and plums finishing long and savoury. A little more fruit intensity would see a higher score. (Mornington Peninsula, )
Wine: Paringa Estate Shiraz 1997
Wine Review Date: 01/10/1998
Source : Jeremy Oliver, 2006
Wine Tasting Note: The best Paringa Shiraz since the extraordinary 1993 vintage, this is a deeply flavoured wine whose complex, dark, spicy cassis and briary red fruits are carefully interwoven with assertive, fragrant and tight-grained cedar oak. Suggestions of white and black pepper and de luxe new smoky/mocha French oak complete this long, succulent, utterly complete and very polished wine. (18.7, Drink 2005-2009, )
