I use this wine key: Forge de Laguiole Ebony
I have used this glass in this Video: Nude Stem Zero Elegant Red Wine
I have tasted the following wines in this Video:
2015 Bien Nacido Vineyards Syrah, Santa Maria Valley, USA
www.wine-searc...
2017 Two Hands Wines Yacca Block Shiraz, Barossa Valley, Australia
www.wine-searc...
2019 Planeta Maroccoli Syrah Sicilia IGT, Sicily, Italy

2018 Domaine Jamet Cote Rotie, Rhone, France

The 100 Point Scoring System (from www.robertparker.com):
96-100: An extraordinary wine of profound and complex character displaying all the attributes expected of a classic wine of its variety. Wines of this caliber are worth a special effort to find, purchase and consume.
90 - 95: An outstanding wine of exceptional complexity and character. In short, these are terrific wines.
80 - 89: A barely above average to very good wine displaying various degrees of finesse and flavor as well as character with no noticeable flaws.
70 - 79: An average wine with little distinction except that it is soundly made. In essence, a straightforward, innocuous wine.
60 - 69: A below-average wine containing noticeable deficiencies, such as excessive acidity and/or tannin, an absence of flavor or possibly dirty aromas or flavors.
50 - 59: A wine deemed to be unacceptable.
When it is all fermented grape juice, why are people paying so much for it? That’s a justified question, one that many have asked before. That we pay much more for one product compared to another similar product is, however, nothing new. Just look at handbags or cars for instance: A Gucci bag is just another leather bag and a Ferrari will get you to work just as fast as your Honda … that is if you follow the law.
Still, humans are prepared much more for some luxury products because they represent something extraordinary and make them feel better about themselves. For this feeling you pay extra but in a blind tasting, the brand recognition of a luxury wine does not matter anymore because all wines are bottles in numbered black bags.
Leon has selected five wines that are all made from the same grape variety or varieties. They might come from different places - I don’t know… what I know though, is that one of the wines is really expensive and the rest are more moderately priced.
The question is: Will I know which one is which and will the most expensive wine win the tasting?

For wines meant for aging, I think heavy glass bottles are a better bet; heavy glass has more thermal mass, so the bottle and the wine will change temperature more slowly if storage conditions are sub-par. Just my thought.

The smoothing this effect has is relatively mild. Just having more bottles is far more effective if you think about it, putting the bottle even in a sock or case and reducing the heat transfer even more effective if you consider single bottles.

My favorite Syrah is Domaine Levet - Maestria. I got some bottles of the 2019 vintage for 69,12€ recently, and would say it punches above its class. about 70% of the fuit comes from la Landonne! And levet mostly has quite old vines (and the younger ones they have go mostly into their Amethyste). Before that i never had a wine as meaty with an as strong bacon flavour. However, obviously it is still waaaay too young. On day 1 it was nearly undrinkable, and on day 3 it became actually fun to drink.

Another great and entertaining review. Agree with your view of some of the traditional “big is beautiful “ Aussie Shiraz out of the “ traditional” heartland of South Australia[not all] but there are a lot of cooler climate versions from Victoria such as the Grampians, Beechworth and Geelong. There is also some exciting “Shiraz” from the Canberra district [Clonakilla]and Frankland River in southern Western Australia that do the cooler style, sometimes with whole bunch, that are worthy of attention. The clue to finding them is often the label says “Syrah”!

Yeah, the Two Hands wine might be an export release. I couldn't find it on the James Halliday website. 2017 was a cool year in South Australia, so they might have left the grapes hanging a little longer than usual to gain ripeness, hence, it might be a little exaggerated. You might have a bias for European styles, too. I might like it being from South Australia. But congratulations for putting yourself on the line like that. You have my admiration.

I appreciate the negative comment on thick walled wine bottles. Actually aside from ecological aspects they do have a further pragmatic disadvantage, particularly for those that are not fortunate to have a naturally cool cellar and thus need a wine fridge. Oftentimes, thick walled wine bottles are made a bit higher. Particularly in wine fridges where the bottles are stored in two rows neck to neck, this tends to totally screw up the sorting of the bottles leading to a significantly reduced storage capacity. I had this with a valsotillo vs reserva (the normal reserva had a normal bottle size, the vs one an extra thick walled higher bottle...). Drove me nuts when trying to fit the stuff in my wine fridge (got 2 liebherr ones, which have a front and a back row)

For me, wine has a fixed cost consumers dont understand or appreciate that wine has a fixed cost of production you have to factor that in and add a markup that will cover costs and pay bills and pay employees. A $45 bottle of wine costs us $38 to produce. We literally are only making $7 a bottle at the end of the day. The margins can be very tight. On the topic of wine bottles glass is the best form of wine storage for the environment all the alternatives generate more waste and much more pollution to produce, glass is recyclable. I am tired of people spreading inaccurate information to consumers.

If you open the wine-searcher link for each bottle you will get the price in your local currency. (if they are available in your region). The expensive one is about 200 US, the rest between 25-80.

I think this really depends on your buget. I think you get the most bang for your buck in the 10-50 US$ range.

I don't think I have ever seen a Beaujolais profiled on this channel. Some of Beaujolais Crus (e.g. Moulin-à-Vent, Morgon, and Fleurie) can be very good at surprisingly affordable prices.

#1 Jean-Louis Chave, but don't sleep on WA State Syrah. Not the same of course. But with climate change, I believe WA Syrah is the future.

Please start doing proper blind tastings. So much information to be gathered from seeing and handling the bottle.
