Blueberries, fresh soft licorice, poached raspberries and fennel flowercompose the core, while exotic spice and resinous oak frame the picture. Thecarriage of flavour across the palate hints at the quality of fruit that goes intoit.The memory of it lingers long after the wine is gone.” - 94 Points. Erin Larkin, 2023 Wine Companion.

Erin Larkin - Halliday Wine Companion

From a dry-grown single vineyard planted in 1996. Matured for 22 months in French oak (40% new), with a further 20 months in bottle prior to release. Concentrated and intense, this is saturated – positively dripping – with flavour. Blueberries, fresh soft licorice, poached raspberries and fennel flower compose the core, while exotic spice and resinous oak frame the picture. The carriage of flavour across the palate hints at the quality of fruit that goes into it. The memory of it lingers long after the wine is gone.

Campbell Mattinson - The Wine Front

A bloom of flavour and scent. This really does serve it all straight up at you. Blueberries, florals, mints, liquorice and vanilla cream characters come juicily and joyously at you. It’s uncomplicated in a good way. It’s not thick or gloopy, it’s just juicy and full.

Gabrielle Poy - The Real Review

Wafts of stewed plums and vanilla pods lead into a densely-fruited palate. It's ripe and big yet it glides across the palate. The tannins are polished and suave. A well-made wine that will appeal to those who love rich and ripe cabernets
