Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate

Super-concentrated, intense, and black as a moonless night, the 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon Sandown is a full-bodied, powerful, rich, impressive Cabernet that Bratasiuk claims will live for 15 or more years.

 

The Clarendon Hills Onkaparinga Grenache hails from a bush vine, single vineyard in the upper reaches of Blewitt Springs, McLaren Vale. The vines are nearly 80 years old being planted in the mid 1940’s and due to the high density rocks found beneath this site the vines struggle to survive and in 80 years of growth the vines have only managed approximately 30 cm of bush vine height growth.  The site is extremely low yielding and highly concentrated and capable of yielding approximately 500 cases for the world. The quality standard is unmistakably world class and is considered a Grand Cru vineyard by Clarendon Hills. It is made only in the best years and the last release was 2015 vintage that scored 97/100 by Wine Advocate. Richly layered and deeply flavoured, the single vineyard expression reveals notes of confectionary like Turkish delight and musk coupled with delicately floral violet and rose petal while layers of fine blueberry, raspberry and cherry skin intertwine with ethereally light and effortless incense and crushed rock mineral notes . Harmoniously balanced and effortlessly powerful, the supple tannins are already soft enough to open up and enjoy today.
