Sam Kim - Wine Orbit
Gorgeously fruited and enticing, the wine shows blackberry, cake spice, smoked game, and assorted nut aromas on the nose. The succulent palate offers terrific weight and richly textured mouthfeel, leading to a persistent, flavoursome finish.

Jane Faulkner - Halliday Wine Companion
Malbec and Langhorne Creek – talk about a symbiotic relationship. Throw in the excellent producer Bremerton, and, well, it’s going to be a good outcome. A deep, dark garnet hue; fleshy ripe plums coated in cocoa, baking spices and woodsy spices via oak. The palate full bodied with densely packed tannins, quite robust yet a brightness within.

Campbell Mattinson - The Wine Front
This is a well-powered release with good fruit, sound structure and slightly pronounced acidity. It tastes of plums, leather, iodine and citrus, creamy-cedarwood oak adding a modest slip of velvet. It all works well.
