“It’s stylish and complex on the nose with dark fruit intensity, warm spice, smoked game and cedar characters, leading to a splendidly weighted palate offering velvety texture and polished tannins. Generous and flavoursome with a lengthy satisfying finish. Drink: now to 2034” Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Mar 2023

“A classic Barossa Shiraz from a fine vintage. This is deep maroon in colour with a nose offering spices, florals, red fruits, a hint of licorice, dry herbs and especially, dark chocolate. Good intensity here with the palate moving to darker berries and flavours with black fruits, cassis and more chocolate underlined by cashmere tannins, good intensity and excellent length. This will drink well for at least the next decade. Lots to love here. Drink: now – 2033” Ken Gargett, WinePilot

“Shiraz sourced from Krondorf and St Kitts at the far north of the Barossa Valley, co-fermented with a small percentage of viognier and matured in French oak for 20 months. Primary-fruit characters of crunchy blueberry and ripe plums, cut with spice, violets, licorice and dark chocolate. Weight and concentrated, the tannins come across as a little pixelated and there’s a touch of heat on the finish, but drinks well regardless” Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion

Deep red with vibrant purple hues. Aromas of rich dark fruit; blackberry, dark plum and blueberry with notes of dark chocolate, graphite and cedary spice. The palate is driven by layers of primary fruits; mulberry, blackberry and dark plum, with the exuberant fruit carrying all the way through the palate. Subtle French oak notes of cedar and spice add support and a complex lift to the palate. A wine with soft, ripe and mouth filling tannins with a long rich finish.
