Strathewen Hills 2004 Tribal Elder Shiraz (Yarra Valley)
- $70
Smoky and meaty, this is aggressively savory in style, but really evolves with air to show a gentler, raspberry-fruited side accented by dried spices. It’s medium- to full- bodied, with a slightly creamy texture and silky, mouthwatering finish. Terrific cool-climate Shiraz.

Strathewen Hills 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon (Yarra Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $30
A crisp medium-bodied Cab with good varietal definition, Strathewen Hill’s 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon boasts slightly minty cassis-inflected fruit, vanilla and chocolate notes and a smooth mouthfeel. Supple tannins on the finish suggest this will age well through 2012 or so.

Strathewen Hills 2005 Merlot (Yarra Valley)
- $30
Pretty robust in style for Merlot, with the ripe black-cherry fruit framed by plenty of structure. There’s a minty or resiny note to the aromas and flavors, which imparts a slightly medicinal edge to the prolonged finish. Drink now–2012, possibly beyond.
