March 14, 2016 - Full on grenache blend with smoky edge. Rich spice comes through though the tannins are softening. Not showing signs of fading yet.

September 6, 2015 - This has developed well in the bottle. An expressive example of good aussie shiraz. Smooth almost mellowed black fruit; vanilla in check. Lovely.

September 15, 2012 - Skovgaard Vine efterårsmessen 2012 (Brøndby): Blandingsdruer på Shiraz, Grenache og CS. Smagt noget lignende før og intet der gør vinen bemærkelsesværdig. God vin men ordinær og mainstream.
