Jasper Hill Georgia's Paddock (biodynamisk)

En af de absolutte Shiraz-stjerner i Australien for tiden og helt sikkert også i fremtiden! Georgia's Paddock er en enkeltmarksvin, som kommer fra Bendigo i Victoria. I 1975 blev der tilplantet ca. 30 ha med Shiraz. Der bliver hverken sprøjtet eller brugt nogen form for gødning - det naturlige er i højsædet her. Rig i smagen, med fuldmoden sort kirsebær, peber og anis, som fylder munden og skaber en lang eftersmag. Fin balance mellem tannin og syre. Man fornemmer Georgias Paddocks terroir, som tilføjer vinen ekstra kvalitet. Vil kun vinde ved længere tids lagring. 96 point - James Halliday: "Deep, bright crimson-purple; the bouquet offers a complex array of black fruits, spice, licorice and a hint of smoked meat, the full-bodied palate fulfilling the promises of the bouquet; dusty tannins join with the extravagant fruit, and the wine cries out for time. A gold-plated certainty to repay discipline many times over. 96/100 point." +93 point - Parker/Wine Advocate: "Deep purple-black in color, the 2013 Shiraz Georgia's Paddock has a broody nose of crushed blackcurrants, black plums and warm blackberries with hints of star anise, dark chocolate and Szechuan pepper. Rich, voluptuous and full-bodied in the mouth, it is far from "heavy" and offers great freshness to juxtapose the concentrated flavors while the approachable, rounded tannins contribute velvety texture through the long finish. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advocate, februar 2015 93 point - Vinous: "Inky purple. Explosive, focused aromas of black and blue fruits, licorice and candied violet, with a sexy note of smoky Indian spices emerging with air. Weighty and plush on the palate, offering creamy blueberry and cherry liqueur flavors with intense spicecake, vanilla and white pepper flourishes. In a rich but vibrant style, finishing with excellent energy and smooth, late-arriving tannins." - Josh Raynolds, Vinous.com, marts 2016 Andre ratings: Gourmet Traveller Wine: Australias Best Cellar Door Awards 2016 95 point - Wine Enthusiast 92 point - Jeremy Oliver
