Join me checking out another emerging variety – this time a Lagrein. I have tried this variety before and I am amazed at the milk chocolate character this wine seems to provide.

Another new variety – Teroldego. An Italian variety that I have not tried before. It was wonderful and I hope to see more of this variety.
Dianna Genders has done it again with a McLaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon of substance.
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.
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.
Thanks for joining me on the 100th episode of Lonely Grape TV. As this is a special treat I am sharing a bottle on 2009 Fox Creek Wines Short Row Shiraz. A wine I had some involvement in making as I did most of the laboratory analysis of the grapes, ferments and wine, during my 18 months at Fox Creek Wines.
From the Braydun Hill stable, this Shimply Shiraz is a pleasant surprise and I can see why it is a recent award winner.
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.
There were no donuts in this wine – good Cabernet from McLaren Vale from Dowie Doole. Check out the video to see what I mean……

What a joy – the 2010 Gilligan Shiraz Grenache Mourvedre. One of my favorite blends and this one makes the grade.
