January 12, 2024 - Blackberry, plum, leather and hints of tobacco. Nice tannins, a bit closed. Give it enough air and a few more years in the cellar.

July 28, 2023 - Intense berry flavours with a smooth finish. A lovely shiraz but not worth the pricetag.

November 17, 2021 - Decanted 2,5 hours. Very young. I think this will need at least 5 more years in the cellar. Sweet and not very complex right now, but nevertheless a pretty good wine. It seems as if it has more potential. 93+ pts. at the moment.

March 20, 2021 - Appearance: medium ruby.
Nose: medium plus intensity; aromas of dark cherry, dried orange peel, dark plum, prune, red roses, a load of oak spices, nutmeg, vanilla. It’s developing.
Palate: dry, medium plus acidity, high grippy tannins, high alcohol, full body, pronounced flavour intensity, long finish.
Overall, it’s an outstanding wine. Still very young and need a few more years to integrate the tannins.1 person found this helpful Comment -

September 14, 2020 - Medium deep crimson colour; really complex multifaceted fruit on the nose, very alluring. Spice, hint of good oak; it overblown, nice acidity here and only just in the fuller side of medium bodied. Quite embryonic on the palate, needs time to settle and come together but good potential here. Promising.
