Description / Reviews
"The flavours, the savouriness and the feel of this wine are all appealing. Lots of detail with nothing overt. The palate lends itself to cocoa-powder tannins, the oak is integrated and there's a depth of flavour. It comes out as a complete wine." - 96 Points, Jane Faulkner, Halliday Wine Companion
"Deep, concentrated purple colour, with a bold, essency, slightly raw aroma with straightforward, concentrated and chewy tannin palate, which lacks a little elegance but has plenty of muscle. This has the makings of an excellent wine in time, but needs more maturation. Density, chew and power to burn. " - 93 Points, Huon Hooke, The Real Review
"Sometimes I taste a wine and think ‘Ah, this will elicit the appropriate oohs and ahhs from a certain type of red wine drinker who enjoys a bold red with a juicy cut of red meat.’ It’s not a judgement on wine style, as such, more a matter-of-fact sort of thing.
Blackberry pie, sage and mint, with toasty mocha and coconut oak. Full-bodied, toasty and savoury, packed with plush dark fruit, though not short on perfume, a welcome mat of dense chewy tannin, plenty of oak and fruit and moderate freshness, with a dry finish of good length, and glimmers of red fruit." - 92+ Points, Gary Walsh, The Wine Front
