Well well well, this was a pleasant surprise! I'm not normally a fan of tannins although this was absolutely fabulous from start to finish with such a gorgeous depth of colour and lingering spicy characteristics. Definitely a memorable wine and highly recommended.
The vineyard itself and warm welcome we received from viticulturist Klaus Hahn, was second to none. We spent a good 2 hours at this vineyard with Klaus while we sampled the Glenguin range and he explained the history of the vineyard. A great experience all round. If you ever have the privelege of visiting the Hunter Valley region in New South Wales, Australia, be sure to stop by at Glenguin Estate. June 2, 2010
