2007 Tin Shed, Riesling, "Wild Bunch", Eden Valley
12/750ml
Hand
picked from sixty year old vines in the Eden Valley, whole
bunch pressed and naturally fermented, using
minimal additions and loads of attention.
This has an incredible nose: full, limey and fresh with great
balance. The liminess isn’t over powering, and there’s
some minerality here too, together with a touch of herbiness.
The palate is concentrated and broad with minerally, lemony
fruit.

2008 Tin Shed, Shiraz, "Melting Pot", Eden Valley 12/750ml
The Melting Pot was named by one of the
‘Wild Bunch’ after a few drinks and a think tank. It
reflects this blend being a ‘Melting Pot’ of flavors
derived from an array of different Shiraz vineyards through
Eden Valley as well as a few barrels of Mourvedre and Grenache
for funk and spice.
Ageing in old barrels for 12 months has allowed the
true terroir of a very difficult vintage show how special Eden
Valley is. The color is a delicious deep thick purple. The
nose has glorious dark heady notes of licorice and black
fruits. The palate is warm and smooth with lifted spicy and
floral notes after decanting. The length is long and soft with
remarkable balance.

"The
purple-colored 2007 Melting Pot Shiraz contains a dollop of
Grenache and Mourvedre and was aged in seasoned French oak for
12 months. Spice box, underbrush, licorice, and an assortment
of black fruit aromas lead to a medium to full-bodied, savory
wine with layered fruit and plenty of tannin. The wine is
well-balanced but will benefit from 2-3 years of additional
bottle age. This lengthy effort will drink well through 2019."

2005 Tin Shed, Shiraz, "Melting Pot", Eden Valley 12/750ml
Bright
and aromatic with lovely fruit characters. The palate is
smooth with spice and fruits.
"A
stunning offering, the 2005 Shiraz Melting Pot reveals
flamboyant aromas of cassis, black pepper, licorice, and
espresso roast. This medium to full-bodied, pure, rich Shiraz
offers another example of the seamlessness of this vintage."
- Wine Advocate (#167, Oct 2006), 91-94 pts
“Dark,
dense and chewy, offering a serious mouthful of
cardamom-scented black cherry, beet and black olive character.
The distinctive flavor profile and rich texture need time to
soften and gain some harmony. Best from 2012 through 2020.”

2004 Tin Shed, "Three Vines MSG", Barossa 12/750ml
MSG stands for
Mourvèdre,
Syrah, Grenache, produced from
80 year old vines and aged in
seasoned hogsheads.
"Ruby-red.
Elegant, mineral-laced aromas of cherry, raspberry, plum and
flowers, with subtle hints of graphite, iron and cured
tobacco. Features loads of sweet, vibrant berry and cherry
flavor but this silky, polished midweight also shows a deft
touch. Bright fruit is nicely supported by fine-grained
tannins and gentle acidity. Finishes on a lingering, juicy
note of fresh blackcurrant. Impressive for its balance of
brash flavor and suave, even understated texture and
weight."
- Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, 92 pts
"The 2004 Three Vines, a blend of old
vine Mourvedre, Syrah, and Grenache, exhibits a dense
ruby/purple color along with a big nose of tree bark, fresh
mushrooms, blueberries, raspberries, Provencal herbs, and
garrigue. A complex, 300-liter hogshead-aged, French-styled
red, it should drink well for 3-4 years."

2003 Tin Shed, "Three Vines MSG", Barossa 12/750ml
"Zingy, offering a lively mouthful of peppery currant and
plum flavors. This is tightly packed with layers of spice and
toast around vibrant fruit, which lingers against refined
tannins on the juicy finish. Best from 2009 through
2015."
- Wine Spectator (Aug. 2007), 91 pts
“The deep, ruby/purple-hued, perfumed 2003 MSG
(40% Mourvedre, 20% Shiraz, 40% Grenache) offers up aromas of
coffee beans, black cherries, mocha, chocolate, and dried
herbs. This opulent, attractively textured, medium to
full-bodied effort can be enjoyed over the next 5-7 years.”- Robert Parker Jr., The Wine Advocate

2005 Tin Shed, Shiraz, "Single Wire", Eden Valley
6/750ml
Lovely fruity aromas. The palate is
expressive with a good structure and some spiciness on the
finish. Beautiful and elegant fruity characters.
"The
2005 Shiraz Single Wire is dense, opulent, and even richer
than the Melting Pot with intense flavors, a natural,
full-bodied texture, and a 40+-second finish. It should drink
well for 10-12 years."

2004 Tin Shed Shiraz, "Single Wire", Eden Valley
6/750ml
"Bright
ruby. Dense, brooding, inky nose opens slowly to reveal
powerful aromas of candied plum, blackberry, kirsch, tobacco,
graphite, black cardamom and musky underbrush. A medium-bodied
shiraz with a gentle dryness that puts the sweet fruit into
high relief. The very concentrated fruit flavors offer
excellent delineation and structure, not to mention length on
the palate. I'd call the fruit explosive but it's really more
of a slow, silky burn. You could easily pay twice as much for
a wine with similar elegance, balance and
intensity."
- Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, 94 pts
"The 2004 Shiraz Single Wire (tasted
from barrel) is outstanding."
- Wine
Advocate (#167, Oct 2006), 89-92 pts
“Has
density and richness, but manages to focus its supple
blackberry, white pepper and clove flavors, weaving a licorice
note through the long, expressive finish. Balanced with enough
acidity to cut through the richness, this sails through the
finish seamlessly. Drink now through 2016.”

6/750ml
"Zingy, offering a lively mouthful of
peppery currant and plum flavors. This is tightly packed with
layers of spice and toast around vibrant fruit, with refined
tannins. Best from 2009 through 2015"
- H.S.,
Wine Spectator (June 27, 2007), 91 pts
"Almost Rhône-ish in
its spicy, savory notes and sour plum flavors. It’s meaty
and peppery, with sausage-like notes. Only medium-bodied, this
is not a typical Barossa heavyweight, but a wine that relies
on aromatics and complexity for its charm. Drink now–2012."
