Dalwhinnie Moonambel Shiraz 2008 - RRP $65
96pts Huon Hooke | 95pts James Halliday | 95pts The Wine Front | 95 Wine Genius | 95pts Jeremy Oliver
“The Dalwhinnie shiraz vineyard is one of Australia’s great wine treasures. It has hit top form – once again. An exquisitely delicious red… It’s just so well balanced, so silky smooth, so savoury and yet so sweet. It tastes of plums, coffee beans, Asian spices and woodsmoke. Trace elements of mint provide lift. It has beautiful but unobtrusive tannin and gorgeous input from oak. A wonderful Aussie red.” The Wine Front, March 2010.
Dalwhinnie Moonambel Shiraz 2009 - RRP $65
95pts James Halliday | 94pts The Wine Front
“Highly polished blueberry and blackberry fruit bouquet, showing well integrated toasty oak, Asian allspice, game and vivid mineral complexity; the palate is finely layered with vibrant red fruits and crunchy acidity prominent, offset by silky fine-grained tannins and an engagingly long and harmonious conclusion; a little time will also be well rewarded.” James Halliday, August 2011.
Dalwhinnie Moonambel Shiraz 2013 - RRP $65
96pts James Halliday
“Saturated purple-crimson; the classic breeding lines are on full display; black fruits of every description fill the medium-bodied palate, with spicy/cedary tannins rippling the surface from start to finish. Already very distinguished, and headed to greatness.” James Halliday, July 2015.
Dalwhinnie Moonambel Cabernet 2009 - RRP $55
93pts James Halliday
“Bright colour, vivid hue; restrained and savoury red fruited bouquet, showing struck quartz minerality and a suggestion of violet; the palate is medium-bodied, fleshy and engaging with bright acidity and savoury, chewy tannin providing length and freshness.” James Halliday, August 2011
Dalwhinnie Moonambel Cabernet 2010 - RRP $55
95pts James Halliday | 95pts Huon Hooke | 94pts The Wine Front
“Lovely wine. Regal yet welcoming. Smells of cigar and blackcurrant and tastes similarly. Has a good push of smoky, coffeed oak. Well textured throughout but brash with tannin through the finish. Finishes impressively. Quality wine from go to whoa.” The Wine Front, June 2013.
Dalwhinnie Moonambel Cabernet 2013 - RRP $55
97pts James Halliday
“Blackcurrant/cassis fruit is perfectly matched with ripe, persistent tannins and quality oak. Virtually unchanged since first tasted Jan ‘15, and will surely be one of the great Dalwhinnie cabernets as it slowly matures over the next 20+ years.” James Halliday, November 2015.
