2022 Mystery Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Deal No. 04

94 POINTS

Sam Kim - Wine Orbit

It's splendidly expressed on the nose, showing blackcurrant, vanillin oak, and dark chocolate aromas with a fragrant spicy overtone. The palate offers excellent weight and silky texture, wonderfully framed by chalky tannins, finishing persistent and sturdy.

Ken Gargett - Winepilot

From a single vineyard in the Barossa, the vines are in excess of seventy years of age. The wine spent 22 months maturing in French oak and is bottled under cork. The colour here is a deep magenta. There is quite a meaty nose with black fruits, plums, aniseed, bergamot, black cherries and smoked meats. The wine is rich and chocolatey on the palate and we see the emergence of tobacco leaves among the flavours. Very good length here with sleek tannins, this is a rich and full flavoured style from the Barossa. Enjoy it over the next ten to twelve years

A wine which captures much of the character and personality of the terroir of Greenock in the Barossa Valley. The aroma has a distinctive ferrous overlay on the bright plummy fruits with a little coffee grinds working neatly. The palate is soft and malleable with its generous medium-bodied intensity displaying great poise. Chalky limestone-like characters add another dimension to the palate complexity.
