Description

The lot consists of 3 bottles:-

1 bottle of 1996 Clarendon Hills Shiraz.
2 bottles of 1996 Clarendon Hills Merlot.


The most provocative of the Clarendon hills offerings is the Shiraz.The husky,dense ruby/purple colored 1996 Shiraz reveals a knockout nose of pepper,raspberry liqueur,blackberries,and spice.The wine possesses terrific fruit,full-body,an unctuous texture,and a whoppingly long finish that last for over 30 seconds.Although soft and approachable,it will keep for a decade or more.
(93 Points).

I have never tasted an Australian Merlot that was more concentrated than Penfold's Grange,a Shiraz based wine.The Clarendon Hills Merlot offers a thick juicy blast of black cherry fruit,intertwined with notes of chocolate and earth.Unctuously textured and pure,not overdone,but clearly massive,this soft opulently styled Merlot can be drunk now or cellared for a decade.
(91 Points).
