Winery notes (2022 Vintage)
"This Barossa Shiraz is made for drinking! Soft, slurpy and textured it is balanced with a fresh mouthfeel and makes you go back for more. Sourced from vineyards in the Barossa and Eden Valley, it is fruit-laden, savoury and dangerously easy to drink!
A complex nose of dark cherry and blackberry aromas with a hint of forest floor and spice. Vibrant dark cherry and blackberry with a hint of 'wombat rolled in all spice' balanced with an even, textural palate with soft, supple tannins."
93/100 Andrew Caillard MW & Andrea Pritzker, The Vintage Journal (2022 Vintage)
"Deep crimson, intense black cherry, boysenberry hint walnut liquorice aromas. Juicy and richly flavoured with lovely fresh blackberry, black cherry, boysenberry fruits, sinuous chalk tannins and a long thread of aniseed. Delicious early drinking wine, Drink now-soon-ish."
92/100 Dave Brookes, James Halliday's Wine Companion (2022 Vintage)
"Terrific value here. Bright crimson with plenty of crunchy red and black berry fruits, baking spices, licorice, dark chocolate, pressed flowers, crushed rock and panforte. Mid-weighted with a light savoury lean, chocolatey tannins and a medium-length finish that shows some lovely cream oak and pure fruit."
90/100 Angus Hughson, Vinous (2022 Vintage)
"The fruit forward and charming 2022 Shiraz Mother’s Milk offers up a wild ride of dark cherry and coffee bean aromas with a dark, earthy tinge. It’s well-pitched, fresh and vibrant with a supple core of tannins that fits the overall package of red berry flavour well before a gentle finish."

5 Stars & 94/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, February 2023 (2021 Vintage)
"Richly fruited and inviting, the bouquet shows dark and purple fruit intensity, toasted nut, warm spice and floral aromas, leading to a superbly weighted palate that's succulent and silky. Wonderfully flavoursome and satisfying. At its best: now to 2033."
