July 3, 2021 - If you like full bodied cabernets then you will enjoy this. Great margaret river cabernet with a nice nose on it.
October 23, 2020 - Interesting and delicious. Old world medium body with new world fruit profile. Good acidity and tannins resolved. Ready to drink after a 1 hour decant, but should last and improve with more cellar time.
July 31, 2020 - Friday at the strand (Strand Cellars, Croydon): Creamy blackcurrant tends to the jammy, there is a touch of pyrazine here and a chalky, almost saline quality. Some cedar. With time a little plum, chocolate and red berry joins the other aromas. Juicy acidity is mouth watering, flavours of blackcurrant, plum and chocolate as well as cedar and a little herbaceous note. Silky, drying tannins. It's a little out of whack for me. Probably needs time.
July 24, 2020 - Nicely balance of fruit / minerals / tannins ... good finishing
March 7, 2020 - Enjoyed this more second time around. Seems to be coming together nicely. 92+
May 18, 2019 - Nice enough, especially after opening for 2 hours. Lacked the body/fruit/finish for a really good score
May 5, 2018 - On the nose there is leather, violets, pencil shavings, and after 30 mins in the glass some dark fruits begin to emerge. Powerful oak and density, separating this from their more entry level wines. Chalky tannins leaving a rather sinewy jammy aftertaste. Great value.
