As far as over ripe/fully ripe, extracted, high alcohol. Of course, that is just my opinion.
A lot of the Australian wineries are starting to move away from this model because it's been done, again my opinion. Molly Dooker and a few others are staying put.
Mike, which ones did you get? Haven't been to BevMo in a year but last time I was there I wasn't a fan of their selection.

...don't recall the specifics but one was a Yalumba, a Jim Barry Lodge Hill and Layer Cake.The Yellowtail was the only drinkable one.
Tasting is Thursday.

Yalumba makes a good Grenache called "Old Bush".
Just had a bottle of Mollydooker "The Maitre D". Very nice and readily available here.Don't like Layer Cake. Had the Barry in the past but don't remember it.
I bought Two Hands in Monterey last year so it should be available. Try K and L.

...Safeway had a few including a Rosemount - that's where I picked up the Yellowtail.Costco usually has one but they were out.
I'm bringing the Yellowtail ($5.50) to the tasting (88pts WS).
Someone else is bringing a $5 Lindeman Bin 50 that got 87pts in WS.

Will it be a blind tasting?
