Mywinehunter Holiday Trio

This holiday season we have selected three of our favorite, highest rated wines to share with our fellow Winehunters.  James Halliday awarded all three wineries "5 Stars", and these three vintages were standouts.  We hope you are inspired to pair these wines with your favorite holiday dishes. 

2013 Higher Plane Chardonnay

This wine received high acclaim with 93/100 pts from Wine & Spirits and 95/100 pts. from James Halliday.

The nose is complex and vibrant offering fresh notes of grapefruit, mandarin, jasmine, pecan, and fig. On the palate, seductive white stone-fruit, cantaloupe and citrus rind flavors are enhanced with hints of brioche, hazelnut and a distinctive thread of briny mineral drive.

2011 Juniper Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 

This wine received 95/100 pts. from James Halliday. 

You'll find ripe blackcurrant, blackberry, plum and cherry on the nose and on the palate.  It's is generous and silky smooth with super-fine chalky tannins ensuring palate length and aging longevity, along with refreshing raspberry acidity.  

2014 Singlefile Frankland River Reserve Shiraz

This wine received 95/100 pts. from James Halliday. 

This wine displays vibrant violet and dark fruit and subtle spice aromas. The medium bodied palate displays flavors of blackberry, pepper, spice and tobacco with hints of cocoa which persist through to the finish. It is a medium bodied style shiraz of power and complexity but with silky tannins and a refined delicacy.
