3/13/2024 - WindFlyer Likes this wine: 91 pointsmedium ruby colour and medium body. notes of forest and wood waft along the black and red cherry and pomegranate fruits. dry and very structured in the mouth, with a bit of time and air it displays dense flavours of red and dark fruit infused with blood orange zest, leather, sandalwood, and violets. grippy tannins will need time to resolve, but have good acidic counterweight. moderate plus length. |

3/13/2024 - WindFlyer Likes this wine: 91 pointstranslucent ruby colour in the glass and medium body. a gentle note of dust and whiff of pepper and flowers mingle with raspberry and cherry in the nose. in the mouth the fruit is pure and with enough intensity to wrap the spice and earthy notes. smooth and firm tannins that need a bit more time to integrate, bright acidic lift, and very good length. |

3/13/2024 - WindFlyer Likes this wine: 90 pointspale straw colour and very fresh nose of while melon and stonefruit laced with lime. the freshness carries on in the mouth, with bright acidity lifting the pear and melon fruit over a chalky base. herbal and subtle floral accents contribute some complexity and enhance the moderate citric persistence. |

12/2/2023 - chatters wrote: NRAfter recollections of a favourable tasting earlier this year I decided to pick up a bottle from a local bottle shop in Adelaide. Fresh and fleshy blue and black berry fruit has a touch of a jubey fruit lozenge quality, all of which translates to the palate which has a pleasing and persistent tannic rasp. |

9/30/2023 - Mic Mac Likes this wine: NRThis is quite Iberian but quite McLaren Vale at the same time. Grenache dominates the nose with cherry and dark raspberry but there is a hint of cola as well from the temp. Savoury complex dark fruit and berries. Nice tannin and good finish. Lovely interesting drop. VVG. |
