What is The Wine Front?

The Wine Front is an independent review site for consumers. It's run by Gary Walsh and Campbell Mattinson. It's updated most days of the year (sad but true) with multiple reviews and comments on wines from Australia and overseas - as they're released. All wines are given a score out of 100 and a 'best drinking' window. All past reviews, articles and comments remain on the site and can be accessed by subscribers. Most of The Wine Front's content is available by Subscription Only. The Wine Front has operated as an independent Subscription Only service since 2002.

Noon Eclipse Grenache Shiraz 2006

Monday, Sep 29 2008 · Posted in McLaren Vale, grenache et al, shiraz et al

By Campbell Mattinson

When I was putting the ‘Why the French Hate Us’ book together one of my favourite parts was the section on Drew Noon of McLaren Vale’s Noon winery. I’ve just lifted this chapter of the book and placed it here. I’ve only met Drew once but ever since I’ve always looked forward to tasting and drinking his wine. I’ve had the following review in the drawer for a while - this should have been posted some time ago.
