"Opaque with dark Aubergine core. Lifted aromas of black and blue fruits. Blueberry, mulberry, blackberry and black plum leap from the glass and meld effortlessly with graphite, sandalwood, liquorice and dark cocoa chocolate. On first sip the palate is welcoming and plush with abundant black and blue fruits and soft round tannins and an earthy forest floor note adding complexity. The fruit and acid intermingle nicely across the textured mouthfeel along a line of soft plush tannins and glossy fruits. A true pleasure that will reward for up to fifteen years but probably best in the first ten. Ready from 2026. Serve at 16C/55F with Texas BBQ rib, or any of your favourite steaks." - Torbreck, Winemaker
"Deep, dark red-purple colour with terrestrial aromas summning dry earth, terracotta, forest underbrush on a hot day, and chocolate. Full bodied and fleshy with loads of supple ripe tannins and smooth, supple texture. There's a subtle vegetable note that reminds us we are in Eden Valley for at least part of the wine—traces of sage and raspberry that are typical of the higher country. The wine has elegance and harmony aplenty" - 96 Points, Huon Hooke, The Real Review
