Expert Reviews

The 1997 Mountain Blue (a blend of 75% Shiraz and 25% Cabernet Sauvignon aged 24 months in both French and American wood) exhibits a straightforward nose of new oak as well as blueberry and blackberry fruit. Firmly structured, with abundant wood, good tannin, and medium to full body, it has the potential to age well for 10-12 years.- The Wine Advocate

Winery Tasting Notes

Aroma:

The nose typically features an enticing mix of dark fruits, such as blackberry and plum, along with herbal notes and hints of mint. You might also detect secondary aromas of chocolate, cedar, and spices that have developed with age.

Palate:

On the palate, it is generally full-bodied with a smooth, velvety texture. The blend showcases ripe fruit flavors balanced by fine tannins and good acidity. As it has aged, you may find additional layers of complexity, including earthy notes, dried fruit, and a touch of oak.

Winery Profile

A range of finely crafted wines, awarded a long list of international accolades, has made Rosemount Estate truly a diamond worth discovering.

In a little over 30 years, Rosemount Estate has established itself as one of Australia's leading wineries, producing a selection of fine wines that reflect the riches of the Australian climate and an unswerving dedication to winemaking quality, innovation and style.

Established in 1969, Bob Oatley instilled a mentality learned in the coffee industry; that a quality product will always be sought out and appreciated. Bob Oatley's wish to establish a reputation for fine wine production was satisfied early and has led Rosemount Estate to establish a wide variety of vineyard sites around Australia that take advantage of the varied soil types and regional climates.

The 1980 vintage of Rosemount Estate Show Reserve Chardonnay became the first Australian wine to win Double Gold at the International Wine and Spirit Competition, then held in Bristol, England.

Much has changed over the years at Rosemount Estate however, the commitment to quality that defined the original vision for Rosemount Estate's humble beginnings in the Hunter Valley has remained intact.

With the legendary Rosemount Estate Balmoral Syrah as the flagship, the Prestige Wine Collection features an impressive array of single vineyard, premium regional and classic varietal wines that are the toast of wine lovers the world over.

Whenever you buy wine there is an inherent risk, as wine is a perishable good regardless of whether it is sealed under cork or screwcap. At GraysOnline we minimise the risk to you by providing as much information as possible regarding the provenance of the wine we sell.

We take the time to individually inspect each bottle and photograph it so you know exactly what you are buying. All Private Cellar wine stored at GraysOnline is kept in a temperature controlled wine storage area. Any wine that doesn’t meet our quality standards will not be sold.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Wines displaying a 5 star designation are recognised as being of proven quality provenance, our team has verified that the wine has been stored correctly from original purchase straight from the winery, documentation, where possible, has been sighted and cellaring conditions have been inspected. This wine generally comes from only the best and most respected of wine collectors in Australia.

★ ★ ★ ★

Wines displaying a 4 star designation have been cellared correctly as verified by the current owners. In general these wines have been purchased from retailers or traders and stored in cellared conditions from original purchase.

★ ★ ★

Wines displaying a 3 star designation are in good condition when we inspect and we are able to confirm some cellaring conditions but we are unable to verify all ownership and storage conditions of their history.

A wine displaying no stars doesn’t mean that there is a problem with the wine, it simply means that we have been unable to verify provenance, however a quality image is always available for the purchaser to make their own purchasing decisions.

Private Cellar wine is wine which has been stored for aging purposes in a Private Cellar.

Storing the wine and allowing it to age has the potential to improve the quality of the wine. While wine is perishable and capable of deteriorating, storing the wine can alter the aroma, colour, mouthfeel and taste of the wine in a way that may be more pleasing to the taster.
