Profile

Sourced from South Australian regions including Shiraz from Barossa Valley and Cabernet Sauvignon from Coonawarra. Careful cellaring of this wine for the next 8 years will reveal additional layers of complexity and further soften and silken the grape and oak tannins.

Critic awards

Deep, bright red/purple colour. There are walnutty oak derived hints, with an element of black pepper, while the palate is sinewy and firm, drying and tight, with a firm thread of tannin running throughout its length. It's very bright and lively and has a long future, although it drinks well already.
Huon Hooke

— 94 points, The Real Review

From nine vineyards, numerous separate ferments (some open, some sweeping arm fermenters), 20% whole bunches (in total), after 11 months in mainly French oak, a barrel selection was returned to barrel for a further 8 months. The move to French oak is good, but in the final analysis there was too much oak for the fruit.

— 93 points, Halliday Wine Companion

This has good concentration and depth of fruit with hearty red plums and blackberries laced in cedary, sweetly spiced oak. The palate has a succulent, juicy core of spicy dark plums and blackberries. Smooth tannins and plenty of wood through to the finish.

— 91 points, James Suckling
