July 8, 2022 - The 2010 is developing nicely, and at 12 years old still has potential to age graceful over the next 15 years. This really shows the true potential of Australia and easily justifies itself as one of the top Australian Cabernets along with Moss Wood. The nose explodes with minty notes, along with dark cassis, blackcurrant, cedar and tobacco leaf. The palate is super elegant and refined with dusty yet firm tannins, evolving dark fruit, cacao and a savoury mid-palate. the finish is refined. 94+

May 22, 2022 - What can I say! One of The best Australian reds on the market. 12 year old red entering its best window. Such a wide window This wine will last another 30 years. So smooth almost creamy. One of the best reds I’ve had in the last 10 years.

July 6, 2021 - Always a treat to drink. Starting to mature, but has a long life in front of it. Nose is very aromatic and complex. Great mouthfeel, high quality tannins and long finish. I love the subtle minty aromas, the red and black fruits and the overall freshness...not a problem to finish the bottle:) Unfortunately, I don't see this bottle very often in Canada...

June 5, 2021 - Colour luscious, deep and youthful. Blackberry and dark plum. Rich but well balanced. Cocoa, cinnamon, star anise. Smooth integrated tannins. Lovely.

December 20, 2020 - Decantered for 2 hours and drunk over the following 2-3h. Still young and primary. Full Cabernet goodness. Hold for now, seemed like a peak is still 3-5+ years away. 94-95+
