    October 8, 2017 - One of the best Carmenere I've had, this is a great value

    June 24, 2017 - I'm in Thailand for two weeks and wine is heavily taxed...hence this wine. I was pleasantly surprised! I'm not sure I would have called a Carmenère if this would have been served blind, but this is juicy, with full of berries and spices aromas. Balanced and fresh, with smooth tannins...it was served at the perfect temperature: about 14C.

    November 16, 2016 - Lovely and gorgeously dark and smokey. Spice, plum, and some blackberry in this delicious red. Paired with salty, creamy bleu cheese and sun-dried tomatoes!

    Would love to drink again.

    June 29, 2016 - This wine has an intense violet colour with ripe aromas of blackberries and warm spice. I thought it was a French Bordeaux at the start.

    I found this wine to be full-bodied and fruit-forward carrying plum, cherry and a hint of smoke.

    Smooth tannins and good structure. Powerful finish with notes of vanilla. Cellar? Perhaps a year or two, but it is drinking really good now - so don't bother.
