Lonely Grape TV Episode 102 – 2009 Samuels Gorge Grenache

Lonely Grape — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 12:17:36 +0000

Join me in sharing my favorite grape variety from one of my favorite wineries – Samuels Gorge Grenache. Part of the McLaren Vale Cadensia Project. A regional marketing of Grenache. This variety can make excellent wine but it is not really known by the every day consumer.

Lonely Grape TV Episode #101 – Pertaringa Aglianico

Lonely Grape — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 08:03:12 +0000

A treat for me and I hope a treat for you. The grape variety Aglianico from Southern Italy is a varietal I have never tried before. I was certainly impressed – enough to want to try more from this variety.

Lonely Grape TV Episode # 99 – Braydun Hill 2008 Shimply Shiraz

Lonely Grape — Fri, 30 Dec 2011 23:21:28 +0000

From the Braydun Hill stable, this Shimply Shiraz is a pleasant surprise and I can see why it is a recent award winner.

Lonely Grape TV Episode # 98 Pikkara 2010 Shiraz

Lonely Grape — Sat, 10 Dec 2011 11:51:51 +0000

A newly bottled 2010 Shiraz from a really small McLaren Vale producer – Pikkara. This will be one to watch. All the usual character of McLaren Vale Shiraz.

Lonely Grape TV Episode #97 Inkwell 2010 Primotivo

Lonely Grape — Sat, 03 Dec 2011 12:12:27 +0000

Join me while I taste one of the few Zinfandel’s I have tried. I would have to say that this one is my favorite.

Lonely Grape TV Episode #96 Leibich Vintage Fortified

Lonely Grape — Sun, 27 Nov 2011 07:53:45 +0000

Vintage Fortified style seems to be a dying expression of the fermented grape. It is a pity as this style can be excellent. I do like this version – check out my comments.

Lonely Grape TV Episode #95 – Grancari Estate 2008 Shiraz

Lonely Grape — Sat, 19 Nov 2011 04:25:30 +0000

A Shiraz from one of the few fully certified organic vineyard and winery combinations in McLaren Vale. 2008 was a hot vintage that caused many issues with the resultant wine, however this wine seems to have been spared.

Lonely Grape TV Episode #94 – Gancari Estate Rose

Lonely Grape — Sun, 13 Nov 2011 11:55:33 +0000

A wine style that seems to be an emotional roller coaster – Rose. Like it or love it this style seems to get people talking about the style and having an opinion about it. This style is quite dry and suits me. What do you think?

Lonely Grape TV Episode #91 Graham Stevens Wines 2011 Rose

Lonely Grape — Sun, 30 Oct 2011 07:28:57 +0000

My first 2011 wine from McLaren Vale and I am so glad it was this one. The red fruits of Grenache just engulf you in the wine made for pure enjoyment. I enjoyed it (if you had not noticed) and I hope you check it out as well.
