Reviews 92 PointsRay Jordan WA Wine Review 2025This little vineyard has emerged as one of the best in Margaret River for shiraz. The wines always show excellent fruit intensity and balance. In this case it ticks all the boxes. Savoury and slightly dried herby influences on the nose lift off the generous notes of dark plum. Lightly savoury spicy palate displays a balance of fruit oak and tannin in support. A lightly earthy finish completes a nice wine.91 PointsThe Vintage Journal Margaret River Guide 2026A winery which sneaks under the radar at least for those of us from the eastern States this is a fine Shiraz. Fermentation was on skins over two weeks before pressing to barrel. Maturation was in a mix of French oak barriques and puncheons for ten months. 30 of the oak was new. Deep maroon in colour with a garnet rim the nose offers aromas weaving through cold tea cloves leather graphite blackberries spices cherries chocolate and a hint of axle grease in the most positive way. A silky texture with fine satiny tannins this is a thoroughly enjoyable wine...90 PointsHuon Hooke The Real ReviewGood depth of colour with the correct hue for its age there are smoky oak and smoked deli meat aromas of a wine that is beginning to build bottle-aged complexity. There are similar layers of flavour on the palate with fine soft tanins that caress rather than grip. Good current and medium-term drinking.
Bottle Volume 750 ML
Tasting Notes
Aromas of glazed red cherries white and black pepper and cocoa to start slowly revealing hints of rosewater pomegranate and boysenberries. The palate boasts ultra-fine red fruit tannin poised and resonating through textures of plum skin and soft acidity. The finish is firm yet fine awash in cherry blossoms and kirsch.
Winemakers Notes
Picked in the early hours of the morning our Shiraz fruit was destemmed directly to the fermentors as whole berries resulting in slower and more controlled extraction of tannin and greater retention of fruit based aromatics. A cool ferment on skins for 14 days was followed by a gentle pressing straight to barrel. The wine was matured for 10 months in a combination of French Oak barriques and puncheons 30 of which were new and underwent battonage every 5-6 weeks.

Just a quick note to say I am so glad I found Australia Tasting Room! Since leaving Australia, I have missed some of my favorite wines. I researched other freight companies, but none offered the personal touch service of Australia Tasting Room. You have a great selection from the best vineyards. You added others upon request, and also gave great recommendations when asked. And customer service does not stop with the purchase— The team keep me updated on the shipment every step of the way! I cannot imagine a better service from people who know wine and love to share that knowledge. You have a customer for life! Cheers, J Mason

The wine was delivered by GSO Courier early this am and was in perfect shipping condition. The bottle temperature was cool to the touch which is amazing given we have been hitting 37C every day for the last week here in our California summer.
Well done!
I have put the wine into our temperature controlled bottle storage to let them rest for a week (mostly for the 3 bottles of red). I did put one of the Rosés in the frig which we will try tomorrow because we are out to dinner tonight with friends.
Your Rose of Virginia is my favorite rosé, above French and Californians that we have consumed with Tablas Creek “Dianthus” from near Paso Robles being a second.
Now that we have experienced a shipment from you, I am sure we will order a couple of cases more but will wait until weather is cooler for us and the wine.
Again thanks for an excellent wine and the good service.
Cheers,
Richard A.

The wine arrived last week in good shape - nothing broken or leaked. Your packing design is impressive. Laying it down for a couple of months to settle in. Looking forward to enjoying it. Thanks very much

Australia Tasting Room is a very fine company, with professional direction and management. I appreciate the friendly service, and all your efforts above and beyond to make all deliveries happen. Most impressive were the instant answers and responses any time I had a question. All during a pandemic! Pretty amazing when you think about it.
Highest regards,

P.S. One Contact, One Process, and One Delivery - customers and wine treated equally and expertly, with care. You really can’t beat that! Great job.

Hi,
Glad to hear my last case from our trip is on its way!
Your service has been very helpful in getting my wine shipped safely to me. All previous four cases arrived safely.
Now I need to order my “wine needs” via internet and use your services again.
Best regards,
George

Amazing professionalism and kind assistance from Australia Tasting Room!
I was experiencing confusion with a wine order from a winery in Australia and Australia Tasting Room actually intervened to help clarify things. And not just with a simple email, but with a phone call!! We spoke directly and sorted out the details. It was a wonderful reminder that chivalry and quality customer service still exists!! We will use them in a heartbeat!!

Our twelve pack of Tasmanian treats arrived yesterday afternoon without a scratch on them! Now we get to enjoy drinking them with family and friends. Hopefully we can toast some excellent defensive draft picks by the Packers soon!
Thanks for an excellent experience with Australia Tasting Room!
If you ever find yourself in Wisconsin, let us know. We're only an hour away from Lambeau.

I received all of the wines. That was certainly quicker than I expected. I appreciate everything that you and Cape Mentelle did to make it easy ship all of the wines to us.

Thank you again for your expedited attention to our order and its shipping. The wine has arrived in wonderful condition, and we shared a bottle with one of our friends on Friday who enjoyed it as much as we did.
We will continue to watch for its availability in our area, and we wish you continued success.
Best regards,
