Nugan Estate Mclaren Parish Vineyard Shiraz 2010, Mclaren Vale, South Australia
South Australia, Australia$24.95

x2017x, x2019,x 2020, 2021*....be careful not to let it go too long (not sure about 2024?), tasting in 2020 will help....did taste Oct 2020, still in great shape. I'd say 2021 or 2022 latest. Have with steak and aerate 1 hour if possible.
First bottle gone, not sure if drank or gifted.
Oct 2020....rich and intense. Alcohol a little heavy at 15% but after 30 minutes of breathing the burn dissipates. Solid glass of wine which I quite enjoyed with lamb curry (perhaps not best match but quite alright). A quality product and a shiraz I can tolerate. (91)

Pirramimma Katunga Gts 2007, Mclaren Vale, South Australia
South Australia, Australia$24.95
2016+2017 (18 latest)
April 2016...still not enjoying this style of wine much anymore, too alcholic (14.5) and sweet (typical Aussie). First glass ok but got tired of it with 2cd. Ok to gift remaining bottle.
?? Think I may have had the second bottle in 2017/18 and pretty sure I enjoyed it more than the first, perhaps had mellowed further.

Tenuta Di Ghizzano Veneroso 2007, Igt Toscana
Tuscany, Italy$29.95
now, now now!!!!
October 2018, had with Osso Bucco.....still enjoyed but just a little past its peak, mature to be sure but my guess is this was a more vibrant wine in its youth.
