April 7, 2023 - Good fruit intensity through the palate, but fails to prosecute the finish - tinny and too acidic for much pleasure. OK. Thought it better when tasted at the cellar door.

September 19, 2022 - Last bottle. If you like your wine soft, with only the merest hint of a tannic structure and faded fruit gently in the background then this is for you. We enjoyed it

August 20, 2021 - Bottle opened 7 hours before having a glass, definite cassis and a bit of tobacco on the palate. Nice to try young but feels a little one dimensional at the moment. Expecting this to develop into something more interesting once the oak and fruit integrate a bit more. Try again 3-5 years.
