2002 Riesling 
The Chairman - 14/02/2010
Fresh, citrus lime flavours. Amazing fresh acidity even though it has some age to it. Great wine!
Grenache 2008 
Booze Hound - 02/11/2009
Who would think Grenache could taste so good on it's own. This wine has big plum, cherry flavours, a hint of vanilla, with a lovely soft tannin finish.
Riesling 2008 
Booze Hound - 02/11/2009
Wasn't a Riesling fan until I tried the MDV 08 Riesling. Fresh citrus, lime characters, with just the right amount of acid. Well done!
Jack Raj 2006 
Bordeaux Brawd - 08/03/2009
The Jack Raj is the flag bearer for the unadulterated, rich, forward fruit quality reflected in all wines.

I'll be honest, I'm not much of a connoiseur when it comes to wines, so won't try to fumble my way through trying to. However, I love wines, particularly reds, and will always bring out the good stuff over a meal or outing with friends.

In working with Michael to promote Australia wines in Asia, I had the opportunity, nay, the privilege, to bring one of Michael's Jack Raj with me to Indonesia. After having been sold on it's exquisite flavour, I sold it up to all my friends and associates in Indonesia and it was the centre piece for NYE celebrations at Hyatt Yogyakarta.

I really wish I had the words and expertise to describe how Shiraz/Grenache red tasted. All of us at our table that evening were in awe at it's perfection, including close friend and GM of the Hyatt hotel and the Sultan!

I felt as if I was in Oliver Twist when everybody had finished their glass and turned to me and said, "Please Sir, I want some more!". Unfortunately due to Indonesian Custom regulations, I was unable to bring more than one bottle with me :(

I've had various Granges, I've had other reds that cost a ridiculous amount of money (a lot more than the Raj), and I have to say this is on part if not better than all of them! This is definitely something to impress during a special occassion or just to show off to your friends! I hope Michael has his sellers stocked deep with this wine as it is something that will last the ages!
