9/8/2022 - azzah Likes this wine: 93 pointsInteresting to try a ‘reserve’ Australian merlot. Not many of them around, or at least with any quality. This is good - lots of plum, boysenberry, orange rind, meaty flavours. Minerally, orange juice acid. Dips a bit in the mid palate bit lots of interesting front palate fruit and back palate savoury interest. Good depth and length and highly enjoyable. |

9/5/2022 - GD77 Likes this wine: 92 pointsLooking at my last note on this, it was pretty spot on. It is fading now but still a lovely blend. Lots of tannin with the cabernet showing secondary notes but slightly dimmed, or washed out. I got stuck into it about an hour after opening but did not really improve after that, just held. Drink up. |

8/21/2022 - A_Steady Likes this wine: 94 pointsConsumed over 2 nights, Friday and Sunday, the nose jumps out at you, bright acid, red fruit, blue fruit, powdery tannins and a long finish. Very happy to have these to entertain me while the “real” ones mature |

7/11/2022 - AndyDobson93 Likes this wine: 91 pointsStellar drinking for a wine of this age and price. Drank alongside a 16 Allouran and the differences were barely perceptible - great reflection on the winemaking and terroir. |

5/1/2022 - DanielJH Likes this wine: 94 pointsThis really exceeded my expectations. It is on the red-purple fruit spectrum and has a super bright acid profile. It seems more in the mould of a Hunter shiraz than Margaret River. |

3/18/2022 - jskuek Likes this wine: 90 pointsBottle decant for 2 hours, obviously not enough, a little acidic on the mid palate, with good firm structure. Day 2 is much nicer with balance and long aftertaste. |

3/4/2022 - deverett wrote: 93 pointsSuch a good wine, particularly for the price point. At 11 years old this is just cruising along beautifully, smells of blackberries and cedar, some plummy notes as well. Integrated palate, tannins nicely framing without dominating, great length and balance overall. Same blackberry flavours, maybe tea and slight hint of cloves, all meshes beautifully together. Great stuff from Blue Poles. |

1/26/2022 - Mic Mac Likes this wine: NRReally floral with blackberry coulis. Savoury drive from the get go. Acid is bright and fresh with good tannin balance. Quite juicy with a mineral background. Got better as the night went on. Excellent. |

10/20/2021 - azzah Likes this wine: 93 pointsOutstanding - a beautiful purity of fruit here, with real line and length. Nice to see Cab Franc getting a run in Margaret River. Raspberry mixed with blackcurrant, tomato leaf and herbs, cedar oak and minerally acidity. Seamless from front to back - almost so tight and refined, you could miss the quality at this young age. More to come. |

8/8/2021 - StewartWent wrote: 89 pointsReally not a lot different my notes of the 2010.Massively classy wine but understated right now; almost in the extreme. Dry herbal fruits, spice, spicy focussed oak. Decanted for 10 minutes and I knew I shouldn't have opened it. Surely 15yrs+? Points will jump materially as the wine ages. |
