Tahbilk 2010 Rose (4* 16.5 points $14.45) Brightly coloured straightforward style that's pleasant enough in summer drinking mode, though I wouldn't be looking towards a dozen, given the other options that are out there.
Tahbilk 2009 Roussanne (4* $14.45/$13 Wine Club) Typical flavours I associate with the Rhone white varietals. Though I prefer the Marsanne, this one makes a pleasant change. Refreshing acidity. One to order in the appropriate Wine Club mix.
Tahbilk 2009 Sangiovese (4* 16 points $14.45) Spicy savoury style that I enjoyed mightily. Almost ideal for my favoured Itaian staples and I could well be back for more, assuming it hasn’t sold out in the meantime.
Tahbilk 2009 Sauvignon Blanc (3.5* $14.45/$13 Wine Club) Some varietal notes on the nose and in the mouth. Pleasant everyday drinking style, balanced acidity and enough varietal character to pass muster at the price point. Wouldn't buy a case but wouldn't object as part of a mixed case.
Tahbilk 2009 Semillon (3.5/5 $14.45/$13 Wine Club) Herbs, citrus and apples. Pleasant lunch or aperitif style, easy drinking and pleasantly moreish.
Tahbilk 2009 Tempranillo (4.5* 17.5 points $14.45) Deep, brooding red in the glass, tobacco and leather on the nose with savoury tannins I'd be right in line to reorder if it wasn't sold out, but there should be a bottle in the recently ordered Cellar Door Reds dozen. Memo to self: Watch for the 2011.
