Plantagenet OMRAH Pinot Noir Western Australia
Plantagenet is one of Western Australia's top names, and I am a huge fan of their wines, having awarded "wine of the week" to the Omrah Shiraz recently. This Pinot Noir weighs in wiith a hefty 14.5% alcohol, so is no wishy-washy wine. It spends 10 months in French oak barrels too, giving it a very spicy, quite Burgundian character. On the nose it has masses of cloves, cinammon and hints of tobacco, with a lovely, soft layering of strawberies and cream fruit. On the palate it is silky and medium-bodied, with an initial burst of sweet-edged cherry, strawberry and vanilla, before an earthier, truffle and hedgerow quality sweeps through. With polished background tannins and some fine cherry acidity, this is a really well balanced and elegant wine with a long, lingering, sweet finish, despite that powerful alcohol. (12 x 75 cl)

Plantagenet HELLFIRE BAY Shiraz Grenache Western Australia
The Shiraz Grenache has an excellent depth of ruby red colour, with an attractive open berry perfume. On the nose it is spicy and ripe, with perfumes of plums and blackberries which follow through to the palate. Its smooth, rounded tannins have just enough structure to support the juicy fruit up to the finish. The Hellfire Bay wines are made at Plantagenet with fruit sourced from various vineyards in Western Australia. Legend says that the first white settlers arriving in Western Australia believed they were sailing through the gates of hell as they watched St. Elmo’s fire light up the sky above them. As they prayed for mercy they named the area Hellfire Bay. The wines over-deliver in every way; they have wonderful fruit intensity and as a result haven’t had to resort to residual sugar, as too many wines at this price level do. The oak handling is evident, but it adds richness and intensity rather than masking inferior fruit. (12 x 75 cl)
