Tasted Wednesday, 13 Apil 2011.
2009 Broken Shackle Classic White, Semillon Chardonnay Chenin Blanc. Big Rivers, Australia.
B+
Attractive, fat citrus, grape fruits maybe tropical, some lively white stone fruits once its warmed up a bit, good expansive, the semillon giving it some fatness, perhaps even a touch of mineral streak. Flavours are focused, well made. With food or on its own.
2009 Pegoes Santo Isidro Tinto, Vinho Regional Peninsula de Setubal, Portugal
B
Smells slightly alcoholic, like burnt almost, behind that some dark red fruits, cherries. Palate is soft, red fruits immediately there on the palate, unfortunately its a bit thin, I guess its made in a more modern style to give enjoyment straight away. Nothing wrong, but it lacks complexity.
