NOON CABERNET SHIRAZ RESERVE 2007 (2)
McLaren Vale, South Australia.
The 2007 Reserve Shiraz was sourced from a 45 year old vineyard and aged for 18 months in French and American oak, 50% new. A saturated purple color, it reveals a brooding bouquet of pain grille, lavender, incense, smoked meat, blueberry, and licorice. Back-strapping yet light on its feet, it is impeccably balanced, exceptionally long, and very cellar worthy. Give it 6-8 years and drink this intellectually and sensually pleasing effort between 2015 and 2027. December 2009 WA 96

NOON WINERY ECLIPSE 2006 (2)
McLaren Vale, South Australia.
Anyone concerned whether the 2006 Eclipse might be getting long in the tooth should just relax (assuming good storage). A blend of 87% Grenache, 8% Graciano and 5% Shiraz, it's floral and fresh on the nose, hinting at roses, bay leaf, dried spices and quinine, yet flowing with black cherries across the full-bodied, velvety palate and onto a long, complex finish.
