Punt Road 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon (Yarra Valley)
- $22
Winemaker Kate Goodman’s Cab is very enjoyable. It offers brown meat and wood aromas. It’s tight and racy on the palate, with good acidity and juicy fruit at its core. The fruit feels like it’s not quite in full bloom yet; might be best to revisit this one next year.

Punt Road 2004 Shiraz (Yarra Valley)
- $20
Winemaker Kate Goodman has turned a pretty Shiraz that starts off with spicy floral aromas, then adds rich blackberry fruit and a hint of meatiness. The tannins are soft and the finish is a touch short, so enjoy it over the near term.

Punt Road 2006 Pinot Gris (Yarra Valley)
- $20
This creamy, mouthfilling Pinot Gris isn’t particularly aromatic, but makes up for that on the palate, where it offers a modicum of pear fruit, plenty of weight and richness and just hints of oak and spice. Drink now.

Punt Road 2003 Shiraz (Yarra Valley)
- $22
This wine’s winning feature is its cool, minty accent, which gives an otherwise fairly straightforward Shiraz a different twist. Finish is brief; 1,500 cases produced. Imported by Conquest Beverage Group.

Punt Road 2003 Pinot Noir (Yarra Valley)
- $22
Though the red fruit smells a little overripe on the nose, the palate offers the opposite impression—one of tart, crisp fruit. Disjointed; flavors may go over easier with food. Imported by Conquest Beverage Group.

Punt Road 2004 Chardonnay (Yarra Valley)
- $18
Vanilla and light butterscotch aromas on the nose preface yellow stone fruit flavors. Pretty straightforward, but good. Imported by Conquest Beverage Group.

Punt Road 2004 Pinot Gris (Yarra Valley)
- $20
A lower-acid rendition of PG than you'll find in Oz, but it's also a pretty tart one. On the palate, peach pit and lemon pith flavors dominate, giving the wine a puckery flavor overall. A little cream on the finish makes it go down a little easier.
