  July 24, 2021 - We joked that if we spilled a drop on the floor this would burn its way to China .
  Bit and muscular, lots of heat from the 15.6% alc which failed to integrate. Rich dark fruits,lots of muscle but also a bit unbalanced on the heat side. Almost difficult to enjoy for our taste. 89

  February 12, 2016 - Another wine I'm raving about from this vineyard- this is easily becoming my favorite winemaker in Oz. Decanted for half the day and was salivating as perfume of ripe berries and blackcurrants began filling the room. This is a velvety smooth, rich and fruit-driven wine. Loads of blackcurrants and jam punching you in the cheeks (in a good way), yet rounds off nicely with vanilla and toffee in the secondary. Very long finish. Great aging potential.
