Wine: Warburn Premium Reserve Merlot 2006

Barossa, $9   James Halliday 89 pts

A good wine for the price. Nice deep red colour.  Soft and quite a short palate, but with a bit of fruity flavour.  Enjoyed it with rack of lamb with fennell and pear - went nicely.

Wine: Evans & Tate Margaret River Chardonnay 2006

Margaret River, $21  James Halliday 92 pts

I quite like it.  Subtle fruit (citrus, melon) and even subtler oak.  I like a bit more flavour, so I can get chardies that I like better for this price.
