January 5, 2024 - From century-old vines. Elegant old world style. Some flower petals, lots of wild herbs, just ripe blackberries, black olives, smoke, tar, wet stone, graphite, underlying sweet spices and toastiness from oak, bit of game and forest floor. Lush, layered, focus and long. This is really well made and starting to show its full potential now. 14%abv.

May 5, 2023 - Drank at Muse restaurant in Hunter Valley. Really good Shiraz one of my favorite from the trip. Bit on the pricey side though.

August 28, 2021 - Aroma of berry, spice and earthly notes. Palate smooth tannin, some vanillin and vibrant acidity. Finish long

October 23, 2020 - Hunter Whistlestop 2020 #2 (Hunter Valley): Reductive. Time and aggressive agitation shows polished oak, plums blackberry, sweet spice, dusty earth, concentrated and, for want of a better word, opulent. Juicy acidity and this is equally rich and concentrated on the palate. Talc textured tannins are persistent and perhaps a little too much for the fruit. Long, Non-intrusive alcohol warmth.

September 26, 2020 - Beautiful nose of lifted floral notes, a lot of savoury characters of mushroom, meaty and toast. Top quality drops.
