September 27, 2019 - Full and rich with intense fruit. Plenty of beastly weight and structure but slightly shallow on depth and charm. Unquestionably well made but this will be better in 2025+.

December 7, 2017 - Sweet red fruits, herbal, stalky, straw. Palate is quite full, but supple. Filled with sweet red and black fruits, mushroom, wild herbs, cinnamon quill, mildly spicy. Very supple tannins carry the wine to a pleasing, silky finish. Has the stuffing to go for many years yet.

September 29, 2017 - This has progressed nicely since the last bottle ~3 years ago. Some obvious improvement with time. Full bodied and definitely unique for an Aussie Pinot. Can see it living a lot longer too.

June 23, 2017 - Beautiful nose - cherry and kirsch. The 8 years of age have brought this wine together in a lovely way. It has depth of flavour and it's grown in stature over time. The palate is fuller than in its youth and it coats the mouth and persists with a long finish. Has a few years left in it without a doubt.

April 1, 2017 - A beautiful PN, both deep and broad. There is barnyard and sweet wet straw on the nose. Red cherry and strawberry fruit on the front palate. But the real action is in the mid-palate, which is deeply layered and complex, with bright floral highlights interlaced with darker savoury flavours, including roast meats, forest floor and caramelised mushroom. The tannins are supple and silky, and the balance perfect. This is a wine with a song of joy in its heart. Simply divine.
