Press ReviewPress

Rich, ripe nose, concentrated palate, delicate fruit, some vanilla and good structure.

Bronze Medal Deacnter World Wine Awards 2010Decanter Magazine, September 2010

Deep crimson-purple; the full range of plum, dark chocolate, spice and licorice run through bouquet and palate alike; mix-master tannins and oak have been blended in on the palate. Screwcap. Rating: 90. Drink to: 2018.

James HallidayAustralian Wine Companion 2011

This label used to be dominated by grapes from a wild, off-the-beaten track vineyard at a one-horse-town called Wirrega. Now it's dominated by Langhorne Creek fruit and the style has lost its pungent eucalyptus character and gained a lush, loose-limbed personality more typical of Langhorne Creek. I do miss the eucalyptus, but this is a lovely, deep, chocolaty red with syrupy black plums and teasing acidity making a very attractive, easy-going Shiraz.
