Hugo from Australia

Today I only had 3 wines to taste. John Hugo from Australia was here to show off his wines. The Unoaked Chardonnay and Shiraz are in the store. Good value wines that Parker loves. He had a Shiraz reserve that had me baffled. It had hints of maderization or cooked flavors but it still showed great fruit and meatiness at the end. I would like to try another bottle to see if that was just a bottle variation problem

He was also very nice in giving me a bottle of Olive Oil they make in small amounts at the winery. Only to their favorite customers or at least thats what he told me. :-)

Salut
