October 22, 2022 - Aussie Tasting (Minneapolis, MN): So those who say good Aussie wines don't age are not drinking the right Aussie wines. $45 with shipping this is off the charts good. Blackberries, black pepper, tar, spice, blueberries and minerals. This is concentrated and showing great form. Pop and pour and should age another 5 years. Buying all they have left. 3rd time trying this wine and this is the best version.

March 8, 2019 - Can't believe I waited all these years to open my only bottle, and it didn't disappoint. A massive, inky, dark purple shiraz, with a nose dominated by aromas of coffee, leather, and bacon fat. Elegantly powerful Shiraz!

January 27, 2018 - Really fresh and pure. Gorgeous fruit driven palate with supporting acidity and some alcoholic heat. Drinks like a 5 yr old wine not 14! Drink or hold.
