ONE OF AUSTRALIA'S 4 GREATEST RED WINES!
98 Points, Ken Gargett "One of Australia's greatest wines, year after year, and one of only a handful that can be reliably called world class, without hesitation. The wine is utterly seamless with fifteen to twenty years ahead of it, with ease. Virtuoso winemaking resulting in a masterpiece."
"The finesse of this release. The fragrance too, which leads to a palate where just enough, feels like extra. It’s buoyant, juicy and perfumed. Orchestral. Spellbinding." Campbell Mattinson
97 Points, Nick Ryan Top 100 Wines 2024, The Australian Weekend Magazine "Achingly beautiful and intricately layered, the wine presents a fine tapestry of fragrant fruit and heady spices, moves through the mouth like unfurling silk and finishes with a plume of finely pixelated tannins."
96 Points, Huon Hooke, The Real Review Recommended "The colour is medium-deep with a good purple rim and the bouquet is detailed and fragrant, violets and roses, an entire spice cupboard of aromas, with dark cherry to blackberry fruit underpinning it all. The wine is supremely elegant on the palate, just medium to full bodied and finely textured with plentiful tannins that are fine-grained and supple, the finish long and refreshing. Effortless intensity and charm."
