Professional Reviews & Awards
Premium
By Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier 2021Varietal and enticing bouquet with aromas of dark cherries and plums, kitchen spice and mild toasty wood complexity. Dry on the palate with medium weight and youthful acid line. Flavours of dark cherry and forest berries, dark plum, clove and vanilla, toasty wood and a moment of milk chocolate. Moderate tannin impact and with a core of fruit, a balanced and well made wine ready to drink from purchase and through 2024+. Perhaps best enjoyed with food. Drink up!
4.5 Stars
By Sam Kim - Wine OrbitBeautifully ripe and fragrant with Black Doris plum, toasted spice, cedar and smoked game aromas on the nose, followed by a flavoursome palate offering excellent weight and persistency. It's juicy and supple with fine-grained tannins, finishing lingering and delicately dry.
