Gold Medal & 95/100 – Melbourne International Wine Competition 2021
Winery notes (2018 Vintage)
"This wine defines charisma! Juicy plum and dark cherry fruits combine with licks of mint and fennel that overlay a slatey-granite earthiness. It’s a deep, dark, dangerously intense cabernet with integrated tannins and dense dark fruits wound up in savoury spice."
5 Stars & 95/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, August 2021 (2018 Vintage)
"Powerfully expressed with refinement, it's wonderfully lifted on the nose showing blackcurrant, dark cherry and vanillin oak characters with a light dusting of cocoa. The concentrated palate displays plush texture and delectable fruit flavours, gorgeously enhanced by spicy nuances and seductive oak infusion. Chalky and structured with a persistent engaging finish. At its best: now to 2035."

93/100 Mike Bennie, The Wine Front, September 2019 (2016 Vintage)
"Smooth indeed. Sappy texture, dark cherry and light plummy fruit characters, mint and clove, succulent sort of tannins, deep and dark flavours married to sweet oak and spice. It’s got a good feel, lots of flavour, sweet-hearted and with good length. Feels well made. Nice to drink."
