Description / Reviews

"Our fruit comes from the Moray Park vineyard in the McLaren Flat subregion. Picked on the way up to retain vibrancy and energy. Great depth of ripe plum and blackberry fruit flavours. A full-bodied wine with a succulent palate, lively spices and fine velvety tannins." - Winemaker Notes 

"From McLaren Flat, matured in mainly seasoned French oak, with 10% new. Tart boysenberry and black cherry, wild raspberry, anise, faint vanilla bean, a little pepper, roasted coffee bean, some light floral notes, violet and the like. Like last year, there’s an effortlessness about this wine, a midweighted ease and supple texture, its composure and flow quietly compelling." - 95 Points, Marcus Ellis, Halliday Wine Companion

"Spicy, meaty, blackberry, blood plum and aniseed. It’s medium-bodied, again the meaty and spicy character, but with ample juicy dark fruit, vibrant acidity, and a grainy gently chalky grip to tannin, a slight juniper berry tang and pepper on a finish of very good length. Gee, I like this. It’s stylish and so nicely turned out." - 93 Points, Gary Walsh, The Wine Front
