James Suckling

Spicy and floral aromas of dark cherries, violets, blackcurrants, coffee beans and Asian spices. The palate is plush and rounded, with silky tannins and a tactile texture. A classic Eden with lift and perfume. Delicious.

Dave Brookes - Halliday Wine Companion

Medium-deep crimson in the glass. Aromas of blackberry, blueberry and damson plum with hints of crushed herbs, sarsaparilla, dark chocolate, peppercorn, barrel spice, choc-mint and earth. Fruit-pure and layered with spice and a light herbal nuance, pillowy tannins, bright cherry-skin acidity and a medium-length finish.

Angus Hughson - Vinous

The expressive 2023 Shiraz Evangeline delivers beautiful aromas of lavender, blackberry and dark cherry that are seamless and refined. This has good power and tension in a well-composed, elegant and detailed palate through to a fine finish.

2025 - Decanter World Wine Awards
