Erin Larkin - Halliday Wine Companion
83/11/6% shiraz/tempranillo/grenache, matured for 12 months in French oak. Quite delicious - juicy, almost slurpy, and with an abundance of red berries. Chalky tannins shape the back palate, and guide it through the finish. Better-than-average pizza wine. Find it.

Sam Kim - Wine Orbit
It's delightfully fruited and inviting with dark plum, sweet cherry, roasted hazelnut, vanilla and warm spice aromas, leading to a succulent palate that's supple and rounded. Generously expressed and flavoursome, making it delectable and highly enjoyable. Made from grapes grown in Mount Barker & Margaret River.

Huon Hooke - The Real Review
Very bold, bright, youthful purple colour. The aromas are likewise youthfully fresh and bold, rich and ripe and this is echoed throughout the palate which is bold and bright, concentrated, fleshy and full-throttle. An excellent wine that just needs more time to build more complexity, but it drinks superbly now as well. Sharp value.

Amanda Yallop - The Real Review
Bright red and black fruits, jubey notes and perfume leap from the glass with a dense purple hue to the wine. Sweet spices, cherry pit, earth and clove in a big body washed down with plenty of smooth tannin
Jane Faulkner - Halliday Wine Companion
Exuberant with its fruit profile all red cherries and black plums with a hint of red licorice, woodsy spices and meaty reduction. The mid-weighted palate is laced with refreshing acidity and slightly raw tannins; time should ameliorate them, or at the very least, partner with some grilled meats.
